Once
mounted,
the
media
that
is
remote
to
the
server
appears
local
to
the
server.
This
allows
administrators
to
install
software
or
drivers
on the server,
or
boot
the
server
from
the
remote
media.
Intel

installs
Transfer files to and from the target server to a remote location
The Intel
®
RMM3 Virtual Media offers to redirect two drives at a time, which makes it even more
comfortable to perform remote OS installations and allows access to use additional driver disks
during OS installation. One CD/DVD device, and one floppy device or USB flash drive are
supported simultaneously.
It is not advisable to update the Integrated BMC firmware or RMM3 firmware via the RMM3
interface.
2.5
Remote Console
The
Remote
Console
is
the
redirected
screen,
keyboard,
and
mouse
of
the
remote
host
system
where
the Intel
®
RMM3
module
is installed
.
To
use
the
Remote
Console
window
of
your
managed
host
system,
the
browser
must include
a
Java
Runtime
Environment plug-in.
If
the
browser
has
no
Java
support,
such
as
with
a
small handheld
device,
the user
can
maintain
the
remote
host
system
using
the
administration
forms displayed
by
the
browser. Refer to the Intel
®
RMM3 User’s
Guide for specific Java version information.
The
Remote
Console
window
is
a
Java
applet
that
establishes
its
own
TCP
connection
to
the
Intel
®
RMM3
module.
Starting
the
Remote
Console
opens
a
new
window to display
the
screen
content
of
the
host
system.
The
Remote
Console
acts
as
if
the administrator
was
sitting
directly
in
front of
the
screen
of
his/her
remote
system.
This means
the
keyboard
and
mouse
can
be
used
in
the
usual
way.
