Recovering and Troubleshooting the Managed System
Answer
You must restore iDRAC6 to its default settings.
1
Reboot the server and press <Ctrl><E> when prompted to
enter iDRAC6 Configuration Utility.
2
On iDRAC6 Configuration Utility menu, highlight Reset to
Default and press <Enter>.
NOTE:
You can also reset iDRAC6 from local RACADM by issuing
racadm racresetcfg
For more information, see "Reset to Default."
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.
iDRAC6 may not be a trusted site. To prevent the security popup
from appearing every time you begin a console redirection session,
add iDRAC6 to the trusted site list in the client browser:
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.
4
Click Custom Level.
5
In the Security Settings window, select Prompt under Download
unsigned ActiveX Controls.
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.
Remove and reinsert the server.
Check the CMC Web interface to see if iDRAC6 appears as an
upgradable component. If it does, follow the instructions in
"Updating iDRAC6 Firmware Using the CMC."
If this does not correct the problem, contact Technical Support.
