Viewing system inventory

You can view information about the hardware and firmware components installed on the managed system. To do this, in iDRAC web interface, go to System > Inventory. For information about the displayed properties, see the iDRAC Online Help.
The Hardware Inventory section displays the information for the following components available on the managed system:
  • iDRAC
  • RAID controller
  • Batteries
  • CPUs
  • DIMMs
  • HDDs
  • Backplanes
  • Network Interface Cards (integrated and embedded)
  • Video card
  • SD card
  • Power Supply Units (PSUs)
  • Fans
  • Fibre Channel HBAs
  • USB
  • NVMe PCIe SSD devices
The Firmware Inventory section displays the firmware version for the following components:
  • BIOS
  • Lifecycle Controller
  • iDRAC
  • OS driver pack
  • 32-bit diagnostics
  • System CPLD
  • PERC controllers
  • Batteries
  • Physical disks
  • Power supply
  • NIC
  • Fibre Channel
  • Backplane
  • Enclosure
  • PCIe SSDs
NOTE:
  • Software inventory displays only the last 4 bytes of the firmware version and the Release date information. For example, if the firmware version is FLVDL06, the firmware inventory displays DL06.
  • When collecting software inventory using Redfish interface, the Release date information is displayed only for components which support rollback.
NOTE:
  • If any device (Example: TPM) is in OFF state, then software inventory displays the version as Not Available or 0. And if the application is not installed, then it shows the version as Not Installed.
  • The default initial system date and time is shown as Installed date/ time in software inventory until a new device firmware version is installed using the DUP. Also, BIOS and iDRAC date/ time should be synchronized for components whose inventory details are obtained from BIOS (Example: BIOS, TPM).
  • Installation date do not change if the updated version is same as the installed version.
NOTE:On the Dell PowerEdge FX2/FX2s servers, the naming convention of the CMC version displayed in the iDRAC GUI differs from that on the CMC GUI. However, the version remains the same.

When you replace any hardware component or update the firmware versions, make sure to enable and run the Collect System Inventory on Reboot (CSIOR) option to collect the system inventory on reboot. After a few minutes, log in to iDRAC, and navigate to the System Inventory page to view the details. It may take up to 5 minutes for the information to be available depending on the hardware installed on the server.

NOTE:CSIOR option is enabled by default.
NOTE:Configuration changes and firmware updates that are made within the operating system may not reflect properly in the inventory until you perform a server restart.

Click Export to export the hardware inventory in an XML format and save it to a location of your choice.
