Dell-iDRAC-7-Enterprise-Steps

This is a copy from my Github and a remake from this Pastebin: https://pastebin.com/LQ8C7pgs

This works for all Dell IDRAC Servers that use IDRAC 7, This only works for IDRAC 7 and should not be used for businesses as this will make duplicate service tags and may cause issues if called for service from Dell.

This works great for Homelabs though!

This is tested on the 12th generation Poweredge servers, Dell PowerEdge R#20,T#20, for sure works on Dell R420(my current system)

Step 1

Download “OMSA71-CentOS6-x86_64-LiveDVD.iso”. It must be this older version, newer versions replaced a tool we want with a dumbed down version. I have Provided a link to download it but you can also just google for it too as no files larger than 25mb can be uploaded to Github.

This first link Takes a long time

https://web.archive.org/web/20180106065924/http://linux.dell.com/files/openmanage-contributions/omsa-71-live/OMSA71-CentOS6-x86_64-LiveDVD.iso

Official Link for CentOS

https://vault.centos.org/6.10/isos/x86_64

Step 2

Using the ISO create a bootable drive and load into the operating system (This is a live ISO so you only need to boot to the live desktop and open the terminal)

Step 3

Enter the following commands:

sudo su
smbios-sys-info --service-tag --set=9QYZF42
reboot now

When the system reboot it may come up with an license error or an upgrading screen but just let the system update and start IDRAC.

Step 4

Login to IDRAC and it will want you to upload a license

Go ahead download the License.xml or use the following code and save it to a file.xml and upload it as a license.

You should now have IDRAC 7 Enterprise!
