The Sun ILOM Remote Console is a Java application that you can launch from the ILOM web interface. When you use the Sun ILOM Remote Console, you can remotely redirect and control the following devices on a remote x64 host server:
Keyboard
Mouse
Video console display
Storage devices or images (CD/DVD, floppy device)
The Sun ILOM Remote Console enables the devices on your local client to behave as if they were directly attached to the remote host server. For instance, the redirection functionality, using a network connection to the remote host server, enables you to do the following:
Install software from your local media drive to a remote host server.
Run command-line utilities on a remote host server from a local client.
Access and run GUI-based programs on a remote host server from a local client.
Remotely configure x64 processor-based server features from a local client.
Remotely manage x64 processor-based server policies from a local client.
Remotely monitor x64 processor-based server elements from a local client.
Perform almost any x64 processor-based software task from a local client that you normally could perform while sitting at a remote host server.
