Then use the “ -csr” option to specify the path of the CSR file. Certbot has the option “ -config-dir /etc/letsencrypt-drac” to specify an alternate config directory, the SSL key for DRAC should be entirely separate from the SSL key for other stuff. To get a ssl cert that matches the name you want to use (and doesn’t give browser errors) you have to generate a CSR (Certificate Signing Request) on the DRAC, the only field that matters is the CN (Common Name), the rest have to be something that Letsencrypt will accept. IDRAC 6 on the PowerEdge R710 recommends IE 6. Then you can use the username and password configured in the BIOS to login. Web Interfaceīy default IDRAC will run a web server on the IP address it gets from DHCP, you can connect to that from any web browser that allows ignoring invalid SSL keys. You need to configure a username and password for IDRAC that has administrative access in the BIOS configuration. Configuring it to be restrictive as to which ports it listens on may be a good idea (the R710 had 4 ports built in so having one reserved for management is usually OK). By default it will listen on all Ethernet ports, get an IP address via DHCP (using a different Ethernet hardware address to the interface the OS sees), and allow connections. IDRAC is the Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller.

At the end of loading the firmware a hard reboot will be performed, so upgrading your distribution while doing the install is a bad idea (Debian is designed to not lose data in this situation so it’s not too bad).
The process of loading the firmware takes a long time (a few minutes) with no progress reports, so best to plug both PSUs in and leave it alone. Dell provides a shell script with encoded binaries in it that you can just download and run, it’s ugly but it works.

Generally when a server is deployed you won’t want to upgrade the BIOS (why risk breaking something when it’s working), so before deployment you probably should install the latest version. Firstly with a Dell server you can upgrade the BIOS from a Linux root shell.
