If the diagnosticsrequire a reboot, you can reboot immediately or stage it for a subsequent reboot or maintenance cycle (similar to updates). Whendiagnostics are run, the results are collected and stored in the internal iDRAC storage. You can then export the results to an NFS orCIFS network share using the diagnostics export racadm command. You can also run diagnostics using the appropriateWSMAN command(s). For more information, see the WSMAN documentation.You must have iDRAC Express license to use remote automated diagnostics.280
