Lifecycle Controller Remote Services is a standards-based interface that enables consoles to integrate bare-metal provisioning and one-to-many operating system deployments for remotely located servers. Lifecycle Controller takes advantage of the capabilities of both Lifecycle Controller GUI and Lifecycle Controller Remote Services to deliver significant improvement and simplification of server deployment.

Lifecycle Controller also supports local one-to-one system management tasks through a graphical user interface (GUI) using the server’s Keyboard Video Mouse (KVM) or the Virtual Console in iDRAC for operating system installation, updates, configuration, and for running diagnostics on single and local servers. This eliminates the need for multiple option ROMs for hardware configuration.
