Okay. So these are some Dell hardware configuration tasks we're going to discuss here, and these all require OMSA, server administrator to be on the server. They're grouped here under DMC Configuration, and there's one for BIOS Configuration Task. And we're just going to step through the user interface on each of these. For this first, the Management controller alert settings. We'll look through here.
This lets you set the destination for the alerts that come out of the DMC. There's four destinations. So in this case, one of the destinations you might want to pick is the Dell Management Console Server, and it's the same authentication screen you see in the other tasks we've discussed in the other video.
So the DMC configuration task. So for land channel access, you can pick the type of user and whether the IPMI overland is enabled or disabled. The rest of these options are standard, baud rate, flow control type of drop downs that you pick. Echo control, handshake, and so forth.
Again, the same advanced screen and authentication applies to the managed node that you're trying to access, remember. Filter settings for filtering different types of events or alerts. You see all these different types -- power, temperature, battery -- and you can select one of these and then pick a filter action, filter alert, for each one of those. Whether you want to force a reboot or a power cycle or do nothing.
And enable or disable that filter. For serial overland configuration, again, baud rate here. And the intervals and threshold field as well as what you enable and whether it's for operator or standard user, administrator. Gateway and IP address, whether it's a static or DHCP in land information.
Again, SSH port and generate trusted key as needed if you're running against a Linux system. There's up to ten users for the DMC. So you can go through here and assign names as well as privilege limits. Whether they're able to access -- this user can access land access or serial overland, whether that's enabled. Last one we'll look at is the BIOS configuration task, in this case, doing things like overriding the front panel LCD to a user-defined stream. We'll call that data center 1 and leave the rest the same.
Redundant memory, spares, RAID, mirror. Whether you want to keyboard num lock for the post behavior, and down here on the embedded NIKs whether you want to enable, say, pixie boot on those. And you can disable the power button as well. We'll actually give this task a name and go and create one. Set the parameters. Click okay, and that will show up on our left task tree, and we'll select that, and that will be in edit mode.
And now we can review the details of the task we just created here. And create a new schedule. We can decide what systems we want to target. Add computers, and we'll pick from the list. We'll pick a few random systems over here. Take some of those off. Add a few back. And click the Schedule button. And the task goes off and running. In this case, we just targeted against some systems. We'll look at the results.
Some of these will work, and some may not. And we'll pull up the results screen. Double click on that line. You can see for each system the results. And on this system it looked like there were some commands that are not supported. Remember these are running OMSA commands, and depending on the generation of servers, some of these might not have been supported. And we'll look at some of our other tasks here.
I think some of them had some run successfully. So on here, a couple of them, the front panel run successfully, and a couple of the others did not. Again, this depends on the level of support from a particular server that you're running against. And that's it.
