Lifecycle Controller Version 3.21.21.21 Remote Services Quick Start Guide

Licensable features in Lifecycle Controller

The Web Services-Management (WSMAN) License and Privilege Specification encompasses all the license and privilege information required to utilize the WSMan API provided by the integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) with Lifecycle Controller.

Lifecycle Controller is delivered as part of the iDRAC (Express and Enterprise licenses, and vFlash SD card feature) starting with the 11^th generation of PowerEdge servers. On 12^th, 13^th, and 14^th generation of PowerEdge servers, the vFlash feature is included with the iDRAC Enterprise license, so you need not separately license vFlash with Lifecycle Controller 2.0 and later. The 12^th, 13^th, and 14^th generation of PowerEdge servers use only Express or Enterprise licensing.

The Lifecycle Controller management capabilities are partitioned into distinct areas and represented by the Dell Common Information Model (DCIM) profile specifications that provide comprehensive details about each manageability feature or capability. These features may be free, partially licensed, or fully licensed. Also, the accessibility of a feature is defined by the credentials provided with the WSMAN request and maps to the user-assigned privilege credentials, such as administrator- or read-only access.
