Lenovo XClarity Administrator
Lenovo XClarity is a centralized systems management solution that helps administrators deliver
infrastructure faster. This solution integrates easily with Lenovo x86 servers, RackSwitch switches, and DS
Series storage, providing automated agent-less discovery, monitoring, firmware updates, configuration
management, and bare metal deployment of operating systems and hypervisors across multiple servers.
Lenovo XClarity Administrator is an optional software component for the SR550 server which can be
downloaded and used at no charge to discover and monitor the SR550 and manage firmware upgrades for
them.

both, Lenovo XClarity Pro software subscription should be ordered. Lenovo XClarity Pro is licensed on a
