You can install iDRAC Service Module (iSM) from the iDRAC Enterprise or Datacenter, or from the iDRAC Express interface on Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems. The installation procedure is the same for all three installation options, requiring a single click to initiate the iDRAC installer package on the host system. Using this method rather than downloading the installer from the Dell EMC support site or the OpenManage DVD ensures that you install a version of iSM that is compatible with your iDRAC firmware.
About this task
Both an operating system and iSM must be installed on the host operating system.
Steps
Start the virtual console.
Log in to the host operating system as an administrator.
From the device list, select the mounted volume labeled SMINST, and then click the corresponding script to start the installation. To install iSM, run the appropriate command for your system:
For Windows:
ISM_Win.bat
For Linux:
sh ISM_Lx.sh or
. ISM_Lx.sh
For Ubuntu:
bash ism_Lx.sh
After the installation is completed, iDRAC indicates that iSM is installed and specifies the latest installation date.
NOTE The installer is accessible by the host operating system for 30 minutes, within which you must start the installation operation. Otherwise, you must restart the iSM Installer.
