Hello You should review the system manual for system BIOS information. You can find the system manual on the support page of the system. I cannot find anything that states the R820 supports secure boot. I checked multiple PowerEdge servers, it appears secure boot is not a common feature until 14th generation. [URL] Thanks
I was looking into the possibility of UEFI secure boot on an R820, and I found an interesting note in the Lifecycle Controller documentation: [URL] "The Secure Boot feature is supported on the Dell 12th generation PowerEdge servers, only if BIOS on the system supports this feature" So I was wondering, what 12th-gen BIOS/hardware supports secure boot? As far as I can tell, secure boot didn't appear in the iDRAC manual until iDRAC 8, only on 13th Gen servers? Is this right? On the R820 I'm looking at, I have iDRAC 7/Lifecycle Controller v2.61.60.60 and BIOS v2.4.1. I cannot find anywhere in the BIOS or Lifecycle Controller that mentions secure boot. I believe that is the latest iDRAC I can install, and the BIOS v2.5.0 update only mentions security updates for Spectre. So does anyone have a 12th Gen server that supports secure boot? Is there any way to get it on an R820?
