Configuring the DRAC 5 Using the Web User Interface 125
Why are the remote racadm and
Web-based services unavailable after
a property change?
It may take a minute for the remote
RACADM services and the Web-based
interface to become available after the
DRAC 5 Web server resets.
The DRAC 5 Web server is reset after the
following occurrences:
• When changing the network
configuration or network security
properties using the DRAC 5 web user
interface
• When the
cfgRacTuneHttpsPort property
is changed (including when a config
- f
< config file > changes it)
• When
racresetcfg is used
• When the DRAC 5 is reset
• When a new SSL server certificate is
uploaded
Why doesn’t my DNS server register
my DRAC 5?
Some DNS servers only register names of 31
characters or fewer.
When accessing the DRAC 5 Web-
based interface, I get a security
warning stating the SSL certificate
was issued by a certificate authority
(CA) that is not trusted.
DRAC 5 includes a default DRAC 5 server
certificate to ensure network security for the
Web-based interface and remote racadm
features. This certificate was not issued by a
trusted CA. To address this security
concern, upload a DRAC 5 server certificate
issued by a trusted CA (for example,
Thawte or Verisign). See "Securing DRAC 5
Communications Using SSL and Digital
Certificates" on page 108 for more
information about issuing certificates.
