Any user with iDRAC7 configuration privileges can turn on or turn off the local console.
How to get the current status of the local server video?
The status is displayed on the Virtual Console page.
Use the RACADM command
racadm getconfig –g cfgRacTuning
to display the status in the object
cfgRacTuneLocalServerVideo
.
Or, use the following RACADM command from a Telnet, SSH, or a remote session:
racadm -r (iDRAC IP) -u -p getconfig -g cfgRacTuning
The status is also seen on the Virtual Console OSCAR display. When the local console is enabled, a green status is
displayed next to the server name. When disabled, a yellow dot indicates that iDRAC7 has locked the local console.
Why is the bottom of the system screen not seen from the Virtual Console window?
Make sure that the management station’s monitor resolution is set to 1280 x 1024.
Why is the Virtual Console Viewer window garbled on Linux operating system?
The console viewer on Linux requires a UTF-8 character set. Check your locale and reset the character set if required.
Why does the mouse not synchronize under the Linux text console in Lifecycle Controller?
Virtual Console requires the USB mouse driver, but the USB mouse driver is available only under the X-Window
operating system. In the Virtual Console viewer, do any of the following:
•
Go toTools
→
Session Options
→
Mouse tab. Under Mouse Acceleration, select Linux.
•
Under the Tools menu, select Single Cursor option .
How to synchronize the mouse pointers on the Virtual Console Viewer window?
Before starting a Virtual Console session, make sure that the correct mouse is selected for your operating system.
Make sure that the Single Cursor option under Tools in the iDRAC7 Virtual Console menu is selected on iDRAC7 Virtual
Console client. The default is two cursor mode.
Can a keyboard or mouse be used while installing a Microsoft operating system remotely through the Virtual Console?
No. When you remotely install a supported Microsoft operating system on a system with Virtual Console enabled in the
BIOS, an EMS Connection Message is sent that requires that you select OK remotely. You must either select OK on the
local system or restart the remotely managed server, reinstall, and then turn off the Virtual Console in BIOS.
This message is generated by Microsoft to alert the user that Virtual Console is enabled.To make sure that this message
does not appear, always turn off Virtual Console in the iDRAC Settings utility before remotely installing an operating
system.
Why does the Num Lock indicator on the management station not reflect the status of the Num Lock on the remote
server?
When accessed through the iDRAC7, 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 a Virtual Console session is established from the local host?
You are configuring a Virtual Console session from the local system. This is not supported.
If a Virtual Console session is in-progress and a local user accesses the managed server, does the first user receive a
warning message?
No. If a local user accesses the system, both have control of the system.
How much bandwidth is required to run a Virtual Console session?
