d. Press q to exit the log viewer, and then Alt+F1 to access the original console
screen.
13. Reboot the servers and allow the update and configuration jobs to complete.
You can do this remotely using RACADM (see Step
from the server console screen.
14. For each server, check the iDRAC job queue to verify that the iDRAC jobs
created by the bootable ISO have completed successfully:
racadm -r
<dracIP>
-u root -p
<password>
jobqueue view
Any job failures may require running the bootable ISO again, or further
troubleshooting.
15. For each server, after the hardware updates are finalized, clean up the iDRAC
job queue:
racadm -r
<dracIP>
-u root -p
<password>
jobqueue delete --all
16. Continue with OS installation and configuration, ScaleIO deployment, and other
required tasks.
At the end of the process, the BIOS password changes to emcbios.
Recommended BIOS and firmware settings
This section describes the BIOS, firmware, and configuration settings included in the
Hardware ISO.
ScaleIO ID module
The Hardware ISO runs a script that automatically flashes the ID module, as needed.
This action rebrands a PowerEdge server naming, and is intended to make it
compatible with the ScaleIO AMS software deployment.
The ScaleIO ID module should be installed only on ScaleIO Ready Node servers. In the
event of a system board failure, the Hardware ISO can assist with the reinstallation of
the ID module on the replacement system board.
BIOS and firmware
The Hardware ISO runs a script that automatically forces the server to install the
necessary firmware updates.
This firmware is consistent with the qualified ScaleIO Ready Node Driver and
Firmware Matrix, located on the EMC Online Support site,
.
Some of the firmware listed in the table is dependent on the ScaleIO Ready Node
hardware configuration. The Hardware ISO attempts to apply all firmware updates,
but only those updates that are compatible will be installed.
Applying settings using RACADM
The individual firmware files are also available on the EMC Online Support site, and
can easily be installed using the following remote RACADM command:
racadm -r
<dracIP>
-u root -p
<password>
update –f
<filename.exe>
