* The allowed RACADM Serial Escape Key (cfgSerialConsoleQuitKey) values
are as follows:
(a) ^ followed by any alphabetic (a-z, A-Z)
(b) ^ followed by the listed special characters: [ ] \ ^ _
* The supported Console Redirection video refresh rates are as follows:
- 720x400 [70 Hz]
- 640X480 [60, 72, 75, 85 Hz]
- 800X600 [60, 70, 72, 75, 85 Hz]
- 1024X768 [60, 70, 72, 75, 85 Hz]
- 1280X1024 [60 Hz]
* When you update your DRAC firmware, the update resets the DRAC,
detaches USB devices from the BUS, and disconnects remote Virtual
Media. Before you perform a firmware update or RAC reset, it is
recommended that you perform the following procedures:
- Ensure that Virtual Flash is unmounted or not in use by another
user.
- Disconnect and unmount Virtual Media.
* When you access the DRAC 5 GUI through the Web browser, you are
prompted to add the DRAC 5 IP address to the list of trusted domains
if the IP address is missing from the list. When completed, click
Refresh or relaunch the Web browser to reestablish a connection to
the DRAC 5 GUI.
* The DRAC 5 GUI is not supported on 64-bit Web browsers. If you open
a 64-bit Browser, access the Console Redirection page, and attempt
to install the plug-in, the installation procedure fails. If this
error was not acknowledged and you repeat this procedure, the
Console Redirect Page loads, even though the plug-in installation
fails during your first attempt. This issue occurs because the Web
browser stores the plug-in information in the profile directory even
though the plug-in installation procedure failed. To fix this issue,
install and run a supported 32-bit Web browser and log in to the
DRAC 5.
* When viewing the Console Redirection online help in a supported,
non-English language, the second note under Console Redirection
should state as follows:
"The recommended display resolution on the management station
(or client) is at least 1280 x 1024 pixels at 60 Hz with 128 colors.
You cannot view the console in Full Screen Mode if your monitor
resolution is less than this minimum."
* If you are running Console Redirection on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux
(version 4) client with a Simplified Chinese GUI, the viewer menu
and title may appear in random characters. This issue is caused by
an incorrect encoding in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux (version 4)
Simplified Chinese operating system. To fix this issue, access and
modify the current encoding settings by performing the following
steps:
