A CMC user who does NOT have the server administrative privilege, but has the same account on
iDRAC is automatically logged into iDRAC using single sign-on. Once on the iDRAC site, this user is
granted the privileges that were created for the iDRAC account.
A CMC user who does not have the server administrative privilege, or the same account on the iDRAC,
does NOT automatically logged into iDRAC using single sign-on. This user is directed to the iDRAC
login page when the Launch iDRAC GUI is clicked.
NOTE: The term "the same account" in this context means that the user has the same login
name with a matching password for CMC and for iDRAC. The user who has the same login
name without a matching password, is considered to have the same account.
NOTE: Users may be prompted to log in to iDRAC (see the third Single Sign-on policy bullet
above).
NOTE: If the iDRAC network LAN is disabled (LAN Enabled = No), single sign-on is not available.
If the server is removed from the chassis, the iDRAC IP address is changed, or the iDRAC network
connection experiences a problem, then clicking Launch iDRAC GUI may display an error page.
