Chassis Management Controller
(CMC) Secure Digital (SD) Card
Technical Specification
The CMC firmware version 1.1 supports FlexAddress, an optional feature, that
requires server module BIOS and iDRAC firmware, I/O Mezzanine BIOS or
firmware, and CMC firmware updates and SD card installation. The FlexAddress
feature is bound to a single chassis; once assigned, it cannot be used or reassigned
to a different chassis without unbinding the feature.
NOTE: The SD card contains a FlexAddress feature. Data contained on the SD card is
encrypted and may not be duplicated or altered in any way as it may inhibit system function
and cause the system to malfunction.
NOTE: Your use of the SD card is limited to one chassis only. If you have multiple chassis,
you must purchase additional SD cards.
FlexAddress Required Updates
To activate the FlexAddress feature there are several required updates; if you are
not activating FlexAddress these updates are not required. The updates include
server module BIOS and iDRAC firmware, I/O mezzanine BIOS or firmware, and
CMC firmware. You must apply these updates before you enable FlexAddress. If
these updates are not applied, the FlexAddress feature will not function as
expected.
