The integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) and HP integrated Lights-Out (iLO) features are management tools that provide powerful remote server management features, including control to remotely turn a server on or off.

You can use iDRAC features to troubleshoot and diagnose issues during a remote server restart. Avaya SBC supports system monitoring and management to monitor the status of the server by using iDRAC features.

You can buy the iDRAC card with or without the server. For Dell servers later than the 600 series, the iDRAC express card is part of the base configuration. For these servers, you need not install, back up, or manage another license for the iDRAC express card. However, to upgrade from the express version to the enterprise version, you must buy another license directly from Dell.

For more information about installing and using iDRAC, go to http://www.support.dell.com/ and see Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller User’s Guide.

Similarly, to upgrade from iLO 3 to iLO 4, you must purchase another license from HP.
