System Lockdown Mode jobs

The System Lockdown Mode setting is available in iDRAC for 14th generation of the PowerEdge servers. The setting when turned on locks the system configuration including firmware updates. This setting is intended to protect the system from unintentional changes. You can turn on or turn off the System Lockdown Mode for managed hosts using the OMIVV appliance or from the iDRAC console. From the OMIVV version 4.1 and later, you can configure and monitor the Lockdown Mode of iDRAC in servers. Also, iDRAC must have an enterprise license to enable Lockdown Mode.
NOTE You cannot change the System Lockdown Mode for hosts that are managed by chassis credential profile.

After the System Lockdown configuration is complete, you can view the updated status of Lockdown Mode in the System Lockdown Mode Jobs page.
