NOTICE:
To prevent possible network disruptions, you must assign a static IP address, IP subnet mask,
and gateway to the BMC before connecting to the network.
6 Assign a static IP address, IP subnet mask, and gateway to the BMC. For instructions,
see the Dell OpenManage Baseboard Management Controller User's Guide.
7 Connect a management station to the DRAC/MC serial port using a null modem cable.
See Figure 1-4.
NOTICE:
The DRAC/MC module and the network switch module(s) can be configured for DHCP. If you
have a DHCP server on your network, the server will provide a dynamic IP address to the modules and
will permit configuration using the network. If you configure the modules for DHCP, step 8 and step 10 are
not required unless you need to configure a static IP address. See the Dell Remote Access
Controller/Modular Chassis User's Guide and the switch module's documentation for instructions on how
to configure those modules for DHCP.
8 Configure the DRAC/MC module with an IP address and the current time. See "Using a
Serial or Telnet Console" on page 17. See the Dell Remote Access Controller/Modular Chassis
User's Guide for additional configuration options.
9 If required, switch the serial console to the Ethernet switch module console interface using
the DRAC/MC command line interface (CLI). See"Redirecting the DRAC/MC Serial
Console to the Ethernet Switch Module" on page 19.
10 Assign IP addresses to the network switch modules using the serial port on the DRAC/MC
module. See "Configuring the PowerConnect 5316M Ethernet Switch Module" on page 25
or "Configuring the Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3030" on page 29.

Configuring Drive Mirroring

NOTE:
If you ordered your server module configured for RAID 1, drive mirroring is already enabled.
NOTE:
Two drives must be installed to enable integrated mirroring.
Use the following procedures to configure drive mirroring (RAID 1) before installing an operating
system on the server module. If an operating system is preinstalled, you may use the following
instructions or use the array management software provided with the system. For detailed
information, see the Dell SAS 5/iR Integrated and Adapter User's Guide.
1 Press <Ctrl><C> during POST to start the Configuration Utility.
2 Select a controller from the Adapter List in the Configuration Utility.
3 Select the RAID Properties option.
4 Select Create IM Volume when you are prompted to create a virtual disk.
5 The next screen shows a list of disks that can be added to a virtual disk. Move the cursor to
the RAID Disk column. To add a disk to the virtual disk, change "No" to "Yes" by pressing
<+>, <->, or the space bar.
NOTICE:
Data on both disks will be lost. You should back up all data before performing these steps.
