Lifecycle Controller IP Address
I'm curious what common practice is for assigning a Lifecycle Controller IP Address for Poweredge Servers. Do people use the same IP as the installed OS since both will not be up simultaneously?

Bproteau,
You won't be able to use the same as it would cause an IP conflict. You can set it to whichever you like, just make sure it is set to static so it remains the same. Some will actually run the Lifecycle Controller/Drac off of a separate network to increase chances of being able to connect to the server in case of a general network failure. There are several choices like that you should consider when deciding.
