Question If a system board on a PowerEdge 12th Generation Server is replaced, any existing iDRAC7 Enterprise license must be installed on the replacement motherboard to reenable iDRAC7 Enterprise features.
Since there is no active license immediately after a system board replacement, the iDRAC7 dedicated NIC port is not activated or enabled until the Enterprise license is reinstalled.

Not required
Tarkkuus
Answer An iDRAC7 Enterprise license utility is now available for use after a system board replacement if a trial license is required to enable iDRAC7 enterprise features.
This utility is provided as a workaround for lights-out data centers and situations where the permanent license file is not accessible.
This utility must be used locally on the impacted server and allows a 30-day trial license to be installed so that the dedicated NIC port can be activated.
NOTE: Dell Service Providers (DSPs) are NOT required to install or configure iDRAC7 licenses. Any backup or restoration of an iDRAC7 license before or after a system board replacement is the responsibility of the customer.
