Lenovo XClarity is a centralized systems management solution that helps administrators deliver
infrastructure faster. This solution integrates easily with Lenovo x86 servers, Flex System, and RackSwitch
switches, providing automated agent-less discovery, monitoring, firmware updates, configuration
management, and bare metal deployment of operating systems and hypervisors across multiple systems.
Lenovo XClarity Administrator is an optional software component for the System x3250 M6 which can be
downloaded and used at no charge to discover and monitor the x3250 M6 and manage firmware upgrades
for them.
If software support is required for Lenovo XClarity Administrator, or Lenovo XClarity Administrator
