Lifecycle Controller — Supported Dell Systems and
Operating Systems
The Dell Lifecycle Controller provides advanced embedded systems management and is delivered as part
of integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) and embedded Unified Extensible Firmware
Interface (UEFI) applications in the 12th and 13th generation of Dell PowerEdge servers.
The Lifecycle Controller software components are built on iDRAC and UEFI system firmware. Lifecycle
Controller firmware can access and manage the hardware, including component and sub- system
management that is beyond the traditional Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) capabilities. The
UEFI environment provides the local console interface and the infrastructure for locally managed system
components. It simplifies the end-to-end server lifecycle management.
Beginning with v2.10.10.10, iDRAC with Lifecycle Controller firmware is supported on both 12th and 13th
generation of Dell PowerEdge servers.
On the 12
th
generation of Dell PowerEdge servers, Lifecycle Controller is known as Lifecycle Controller 2
(includes GUI and Remote Services). The functionalities available are based on the generation of the
server and the variant of Lifecycle Controller:
• Lifecycle Controller GUI v2.30.30.30 — Lifecycle Controller GUI supports systems management tasks
such as deploy, configure, update, maintain, and diagnose in a one-to-one method.
• Lifecycle Controller-Remote Services v2.30.30.30 — Remote Services (WS-MAN) simplifies end-to-
end server lifecycle management using the one-to-many method. It interfaces for remote
deployment integrated with Dell OpenManage Essentials and partner consoles.
For more information, see the Lifecycle Controller documentation available at dell.com/support/
manuals.
