12 USC and USC - LCE
Launching the Product
To launch either USC or USC - LCE, boot the system and press the <F10>
key within 10 seconds of the Dell logo being displayed during the system boot
process to enter System Services.
If the system is in one of the following states, pressing <F10> will not allow
you to enter System Services:
•
System Services disabled
— If you power on or restart your system while
iDRAC is initializing, the message
System Services disabled
will
display during the system boot process. This situation happens if you
power on your system immediately after AC is applied to the system, or if
you restart the system immediately after resetting iDRAC. To avoid this
issue, wait about a minute after resetting iDRAC to restart your system,
thus allowing enough time for iDRAC to complete initialization.
If the message
System Services disabled
still displays, then the
product may have been manually disabled. See "Disabling the Product" for
information on how to enable USC or USC - LCE.
•
System Services update required
—
If the message System Services
update required appears when you boot your system, the
embedded device that stores the product may contain corrupted data.
To resolve the issue, update the product by executing USC or USC - LCE
Dell Update Package (DUP). See the
Dell Update Packages User’s Guide
at
support.dell.com/manuals
for more information.
If an operating system is not installed on the system or if executing the
DUP does not fix the problem, run USC or USC - LCE repair package.
See "Repairing USC" or "Repairing USC - LCE" for more information.
•
System Services not available
— Another process is currently using
iDRAC. Dell recommends waiting 30 minutes for the current process
to complete; then, reboot your system and try to enter USC or
USC - LCE again.
NOTE: If you believe the system is in an error condition or if you cannot
wait the recommended 30-minute time period, see "Canceling a Request to
Enter System Services." After rebooting, try to enter USC or USC - LCE again.
