iDRAC with Lifecycle Controller Version 3.36.36.36 Attribute Registry

BIOS.MiscSettings.PowerCycleRequest (Read or Write)

Description

This feature allows you to mimic a one-time AC power cycle. You will rarely need to use this feature. You may be directed to use it by Dell support. This feature is usually set to None. When you change it to Virtual AC, the system will do its best to mimic a temporary removal of AC power from the system (the AC Power Recovery feature will not be triggered by this action). The effect of this action is that some of the hardware components of the system that are always powered on when AC is present (even when the system appears to be off) will be reset. Using this feature is much more convenient than having to physically remove and reinsert the AC power cord, which would then trigger the AC Power Recovery feature when the cord was reinserted.
