Installing Dell iDRAC7, iDRAC8, or iDRAC9 evaluation license

iDRAC is a systems management hardware and software solution that provides remote management capabilities, crashed system recovery, and power control functions for Dell EMC PowerEdge systems.

The iDRAC7, iDRAC8, or iDRAC9 evaluation license allows you to try and test certain enterprise features for 30 days before you purchase a permanent license. A status icon in the iDRAC graphical user interface (GUI) changes from green color to yellow color five days before the license expires. Customers who require additional time to complete an evaluation can obtain an extension of 30 days by contacting their account representative.

NOTE: Installing the iDRAC7, iDRAC8, or iDRAC9 evaluation license in a production environment is not recommended.
You can install the iDRAC7, iDRAC8, or iDRAC9 evaluation license from the desktop or by using the GNOME terminal. For more information, see:
NOTE: For more information on using the iDRAC7, iDRAC8, or iDRAC9 evaluation license, see the Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller User’s Guide in the User_Guides_and_Release_Notes folder available on the Support Live Image desktop.
NOTE: The iDRAC7 evaluation license is not supported on PowerEdge C servers.
