You can auto-update the iDRAC Service Module. It aims at making the update process easier for you, by integrating iSM update with the iDRAC auto-update process.

  • NOTE: If iDRAC auto-update is enabled, iDRAC Service Module LC DUP must be updated to the latest version from dell.com/support.
  • NOTE: You do not have to download the updates from support.dell.com. The updated iSM package is locally available in iDRAC.
