Recovering and Troubleshooting the Managed Server 299
I have forgotten
the iDRAC6
administrative
user name and
password.
You must restore iDRAC6 to its default settings.
1 Reboot the server and press <Ctrl><E> when prompted to
enter the iDRAC6 Configuration Utility.
2 On the Configuration Utility menu, highlight Reset to Default
and press <Enter>.
For more information, see "Reset to Default."
How can I change
the name of the
slot for my server?
1 Log in to the CMC Web interface.
2 Open the Chassis tree and click Servers .
3 Click the Setup tab.
4 Enter the new name for the slot in the row for your server.
5 Click Apply .
When starting a
console
redirection
session from the
iDRAC6 Web
interface,
an ActiveX
security popup
appears.
iDRAC6 may not be a trusted site from the client browser.
To prevent the security popup from appearing every time you
begin a console redirection session, add iDRAC6 to the trusted
site list:
1 Click Tools → Internet Options… → Security → Trusted sites .
2 Click Sites and enter the IP address or the DNS name of iDRAC6.
3 Click Add .
When I start a
console
redirection
session, the
viewer screen is
blank.
If you have Virtual Media privilege but not Console Redirection
privilege, you are able to start the viewer so that you can access
the virtual media feature, but the managed server’s console
will not display.
