Procedure
1. Configure a laptop or server with access to the iDRAC network.
2. Install the Dell DRAC tools, including RACADM:
a. In any Internet browser, go to the
RACADM Command Line Interface for
page in the Dell Systems Management wiki.
b. Follow the instructions for downloading and installing Remote RACADM for
your operating system.
3. Download the ScaleIO Ready Node Hardware Update Bootable ISO from the
page and make it accessible on the network share folder.
4. Create a CIFS or NFS network share that includes the Hardware ISO. The share
will need to be accessible to the iDRAC network.
Refer to OS vendor guidelines for instructions on how to create CIFS
(windows) or NFS (Linux or XenServer) shares
5. Open a terminal/command prompt with superuser/administrator accessibility.
This prompt should allow execution of the RACADM utility.
6. Mount the Hardware ISO to the iDRAC from the remote share:
racadm -r
<dracIP>
-u root -p
<password>
remoteimage -c -u
<myuser>
-p
<mypass>
-l //
<myip>
/SIORN/ScaleIO-Ready-Node-
Hardware-Update-for-Dell_2.0.1.iso
Where:
l
<dracIP> is the iDRAC IP address
l
<password> is the password for the server
l
<myuser> is the NFS/CIFS share username
l
<mypass> is the NFS/CIFS share password
l
<myip> is the NFS/CIFS server IP
Note
The default password is Scaleio123.
7. Enable the iDRAC VirtualCD to boot once using these Remote RACADM
commands:
racadm -r
<dracIP>
-u root -p
<password>
set
iDRAC.ServerBoot.BootOnce Enabled
racadm -r
<dracIP>
-u root -p
<password>
set
iDRAC.ServerBoot.FirstBootDevice VCD-DVD
8. Verify that the server is in a state in which it can be power-cycled. (The OS
should be in maintenance mode, as needed).

racadm -r <dracIP> -u root -p
<password>
serveraction
graceshutdown
