Issue 55:
Description
On servers with RHEL 5.x operating system, after upgrading to Java 1.7.0, attempting to launch the Java
Virtual Media, Virtual Console, or Boot Capture plug-in results in an “Unable to load Native Library”
message, and the Virtual Media is disabled. This issue is caused by the Security Enhanced Linux (SELINUX)
“allow_execmod” policy being set to “off”, preventing the Virtual Media operation.
Resolution:
Set the allow_execmod policy to 'on' by running the following command:
setsebool -P allow_execmod on
Versions/Systems Affected
All versions of iDRAC on 12th generation Dell PowerEdge Servers.
Issue 56:
Description
After upgrading to Java 1.7.0, a login failure is observed when launching Virtual Media or Virtual Console
using the Java plugins. By default, Java 1.7.0 enables a certificate revocation check for all certificates in
the chain of trust, using both Certificate Revocation Lists (CRL) with the Online Certificate Status Protocol
(OCSP). With these settings, if the network on which the client system resides provides DNS resolution of
the CRL and OCSP server names, but does not provide access to the servers, the temporary
authentication credentials for the Virtual Media or Virtual Console session may expire before the
certificate check times out.
Resolution:
Perform any of the following actions:
• Provide network access to the CRL and OCSP servers.
• Disable DNS name resolution for the CRL and OCSP servers.
• Change the Java Control Panel settings:
o Perform certificate revocation checks on from All certificates in the chain of trust to
Publisher’s certificate only
o Check for certificate revocation using from Both CRLs and OCSP to Certificate
Revocation Lists (CRLs)
• Change the Java Control Panel settings Perform certificate revocation checks on from All
certificates in the chain of trust to Do not check (not recommended).
