Why doesn’t the Num
Lock indicator on my
management station
reflect the status of
the Num Lock on the
remote server? When accessed through iDRAC6, the Num Lock indicator
on the management station does not necessarily coincide
with the state of the Num Lock on the remote server. The
state of the Num Lock is dependent on the setting on the
remote server when the remote session is connected,
regardless of the state of the Num Lock on the management
station.
Why do multiple
Session Viewer
windows appear when
I establish a console
redirection session
from the local host? You are configuring a console redirection session from the
local system. This is not supported.
If I am running a
console redirection
session and a local user
accesses the managed
server, do I receive a
warning message? No. If a local user accesses the system, you both have control
of the system.
How much bandwidth
do I need to run a
console redirection
session? Dell recommends a 5 MB/sec connection for good
performance. A 1 MB/sec connection is required for minimal
performance.
What are the
minimum system
requirements for my
management station
to run console
redirection? The management station requires an Intel Pentium III
500 MHz processor with at least 256 MB of RAM.
