The Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller(iDRAC) Service Module is a lightweight optional software application that can be installed on Dell’s 12th generation of PowerEdge servers or later. The iDRAC Service Module complements iDRAC interfaces – Graphical User Interface (GUI), RACADM CLI and Web Service Management (WSMAN) with additional monitoring data. You can configure the features on the supported operating system depending on the features to be installed and the unique integration needs in your environment.
