How is data input to this memory?

 

Managed Services Repository: Various partitions are loaded using

 

vendor-provided firmware file and loader program just like iDRAC OS.

 

 

TPM ID EEPROM (Plug-

Factory loaded only

in module only)

 

 

 

TPM Binding EEPROM

BIOS only

(on China planar only)

 

 

 

iDRAC6 SDRAM

Embedded iDRAC OS for 108MB and 8MB for VGA frame buffer

 

 

 

iDRAC6 FRU

Factory and iDRAC embedded OS

 

 

iDRAC6 Boot Block

Loading flash memory requires a vendor-provided firmware file and

Flash

loader program which is executed by booting up the system from a

 

floppy or OS-based executable or out of band firmware updates

 

across the management network. Bad contents yield the iDRAC

 

inoperable and unrecoverable in the customer environment. The

 

lifecycle log is automatically updated by the iDRAC as various system

 

component firmware, hardware, and software versions change.

 

 

Trusted Platform

Using TPM-enabled operating systems; except in China where TCM is

Module

used.

 

 

Chipset

CMOS

BIOS control only via input such as BIOS F2 menu user configuration settings (such as boot order)

Control Panel

Internal USB

Either read only license key or OS control copies

iDRAC6 Enterprise

vFlash

Preloaded media before installation, or remote out-of-band upload of user data (i.e., ISO images, files) or local server read/write capability to use like a hard disk.
