iDRAC 7 Express License Info

Servers that we sell with a iDRAC Module or integrated iDRAC port are only offered in Express Version.

If you need the Enterprise License, you will need to acquire the license from dell.

iDRAC 7 Enterprise License Installation and Setup of DRAC

Step One. Check to see if your server has an iDRAC port. This depends if your model of 12th generation Dell server has an iDRAC port already. Some models such as the R620, R720, etc. have an integrated iDRAC port for iDRAC Express. Other models like the R320 and R420 may have BMC only, and require a piece of hardware to add an iDRAC.

Step Two. After making sure your model of server has an iDRAC port, apply the iDRAC 7 Enterprise license through Dell onto the service tag number of your server.

Step 3. Install the license following the six steps below. This will allow you to access all the functions of the iDRAC 7 Enterprise.
