* When connecting to a remote DRAC 4 using a Firefox Web browser on
a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 (x86_64) or SUSE Linux Enterprise
Server 9 with Update 3 (x86_64) or 10 (x86_64) Gold, the Virtual
Media feature may not be available. The browser displays the
error:
"Virtual Media Plug-in is not installed or running."
This is because the browser is detecting the 64bit OS rather than
the Firefox bit-ness. Since the Virtual Media plugin is not
supported on a 64-bit browser this check will prevent the install
of the Virtual Media plugin.
Perform the following steps to manually install the plugin:
1. Download the 32-bit version of Firefox and install it on your
home directory.
2. From the command prompt go to the location where you have
installed Firefox and launch Firefox from there.
3. Log in to DRAC 4 and navigate to the "Properties" page.
4. Change the Web address in the browser window from
"https://<DRAC4-IP-address>/cgi/main" to
"https://<DRAC4-IP-address>/rac4vm.xpi," and press Enter.
Firefox prompts you with an "Opening rac4vm.xpi" dialog,
allowing you to save the file to your local file system.
5. Click "OK" and save the file to a temporary location (for
example: /tmp/rac4vm.xpi).
6. Log out of the DRAC 4, and then specify the Web address of the
"rac4vm.xpi" file (for example: file:///tmp/rac4vm.xpi).
7. Firefox presents you with the "Software Installation" dialog:
Click the "Install" button to continue.
8. After installation completes, close the browser, and delete
the "/tmp/rac4vm.xpi" file.
9. Now, restart the browser, log in to DRAC 4, and navigate to
the Virtual Media link to use the Virtual Media features.
