Selecting this option makes the following software available for installation, depending on your hardware configuration:
- IT Assistant — Provides asset, configuration, event, security, and storage management for systems. IT Assistant enables you to easily specify the parts of your corporate network that you want to monitor.
- Array Manager (Storage Management) — Provides a comprehensive storage management solution in an integrated graphical view. From a single location, Array Manager enables you to configure and manage local and remote storage attached to a server while the server is online and continuing to process requests.
If you install Array Manager for the management station, you can only manage remote systems because Array Manager only installs the console. To manage the managed (local) system, you must also install Storage Management (Array Manager) for the managed system because this application installs the remaining components.
- DRAC II — Provides remote management capabilities for systems. With the addition of the DRAC II, system administrators can manage and monitor a system through a modem or network connection, even when the system itself is down.
- Remote Access — Provides remote management capabilities for systems, which allows you to remotely manage and monitor the system through a network, optional modem, or optional serial connection, even when the system is down.
- Remote Install — Provides a solution for provisioning and configuring Dell™ PowerEdge™ 1655MC systems using a remote and unattended method. Remote Install provides unattended, simultaneous provisioning and configuration solutions over the network by leveraging image-based technology. The imaging process involves capturing an image from a source system, creating an image file in a storage location, and then remotely deploying the image to multiple target systems. This process allows the installation of an operating system onto bare-metal systems across the network.
