Launch Oracle System Assistant (Oracle ILOM)

Language:

Use the following procedure to launch Oracle System Assistant from Oracle ILOM through a remote KVM session established to the server.

Before You Begin

Log in to Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) as a root user or as a user with Admin (a) and Console (c) role privileges.

For instructions on how to log in to Oracle ILOM as a root user, see Accessing Oracle ILOM.
Power off the host operating system on the managed server prior to performing this procedure. If you do not, Oracle ILOM prompts you to do so before it launches Oracle System Assistant.
