You cannot remotely redirect storage devices (CD-ROM or floppy) if your web browser is started as a non-root user for a Solaris remote client and if volume management
(volmgt
) is running.
To redirect a CD-ROM or floppy from a Solaris KVMS client, you must run the web browser process as root and volmgt
must not be running
To use Sun ILOM Remote Console to redirect a storage device from a Solaris client, you must stop volmgt
and the web browser process must be running
as root. To do this, follow these steps:
As the root user, stop volmgt
.
Launch the web browser from which the Sun ILOM Remote Console will be launched. [I don't understand this sentence.]
For example:
%su
Password:root_password
#/etc/init.d/volmgt stop
# <your browser
>
