See the Dell OpenManage documentation on the Dell Support website at support.dell.com for more information on the Dell
OpenManage Server Administrator.
Using Remote Access Controllers
The Server Administrator Remote Access Service provides a complete remote system management solution for SNMP- and
CIM-instrumented systems equipped with an ERA controller, a DRAC III, or an Embedded Remote Access Option (ERA/O)
card. These hardware and software solutions are collectively known as remote access controllers (RACs).
NOTE: RACs are optional on Dell™ PowerVault™ 770N NAS systems and require a daughter card.
The Remote Access Service provides remote access to an inoperable system, allowing you to get the system up and running
as quickly as possible. The Remote Access Service also provides alert notification when a system is down and allows you to
remotely restart a system. Additionally, the Remote Access Service logs the probable cause of system crashes and saves the
most recent crash screen.
You can log in to the Remote Access Service through the Server Administrator home page or by directly accessing the
controller's IP address using a supported browser.
See the Dell OpenManage Remote RACADM User's Guide for information about running the Remote Access Service from the
command line.
When using the Remote Access Service, you can click Help on the global navigation bar for more detailed information about
the specific window you are viewing. Remote Access Service help is available for all windows accessible to the user based on
user privilege level and the specific hardware and software groups that Server Administrator discovers on the managed node
system.
