This wiki was written by Thomas Cantwell of the Dell Operating Systems team Windows debugging setup is relatively simple – you hook up the debugger system to the target via serial cable - however, the Dell PowerEdge 12 th Generation systems have a more complex setup process to use the external serial port for debugging purposes, or for serial port console redirection (such as Microsoft EMS – Emergency Management Services). Follow the steps below to enable serial port Operating system debugging or use serial port console redirection on a Dell PowerEdge 12th Generation server.

Also, you may have seen a similar article on BIOS and iDRAC - In BIOS Setup, there is a group of settings for Serial Communication – an example from Dell PowerEdge R620 is shown below: Each setting is described below, along with the default settings for each: Serial Communication: Allows you to Select serial communication devices (Serial Device 1 and Serial Device 2) in the BIOS. BIOS console redirection can also be enabled and the port address used can be specified. • By default, Serial Communication option is set to On without Console Redirection.

Serial Port Address: Allows you to set the port address for serial devices. • By default, the Serial Port Address option is set to Serial Device 1=COM2, Serial Device 2=COM1.

• By default, the External Serial Connector option is set to Serial Device1. Failsafe Baud Rate: Displays the failsafe baud rate for console redirection. The BIOS attempts to determine the baud rate automatically. This failsafe baud rate is used only if the attempt fails and the value must not be changed. • By default, the Failsafe Baud Rate option is set to 11520.
