The System Viewer utility allows
you to perform various operations from the source system to a single
target system discovered under All Dell Lifecycle Controller
Servers on the Configuration Manager console. This utility
works on a one-to-one relationship and you can perform the operations
on target systems, one at a time.
If necessary, you can change the iDRAC credentials
of the target system before you launch the System Viewer utility to perform various tasks.
To change the iDRAC credentials and launch the System Viewer utility:
In Configuration
Manager Version 1610, Configuration Manager 2012 SP2, Configuration Manager 2012 R2 SP1,
Configuration Manager 2012 R2, Configuration Manager 2012 SP1, or
Configuration Manager 2012 under Device Collections, right-click a Dell yx1x system or later and select Dell Lifecycle Controller > Launch
System Viewer.
The iDRAC Authentication Information screen displays the
default credentials known to the Configuration Manager.
Clear Use Credentials Known to Configuration Manager (Default) and do one of the following:
Do not modify the existing account — This option is selected
by default, clear this option to provide credentials, else existing
credentials are maintained. Make sure that you enter valid credentials
for iDRAC. You can provide credentials authenticated on the active
directory.
NOTE
You can enter only specific special characters in the user name field.
For more information on the special characters that you can use in
the iDRAC user name field, see the iDRAC documentation available at Dell.com/support/home.
Skip CA check — This option is selected by default, clear
this option to secure communication between the Configuration Manager
and the target systems. Clearing this option will check that the certificate
on the target system is issued by a trusted certificate authority
(CA). Clear this option only if you trust the target systems.
Skip CN check — Clear this option to enhance security;
authenticate system names and prevent impersonation. The common name
(CN) need not match the host name of the target system. Clear this
option only for trusted target systems.
