Install Software Using Remote KVMS

Before You Begin

The Oracle ILOM Remote System Console (Plus), available from the SP web interface, provides remote redirection for the following devices: keyboard, video, mouse, and storage.

As an alternative method for redirecting storage devices in Oracle ILOM, you can use the Oracle ILOM Storage Redirection CLI. To locate instructions on how to use this feature, refer the Related Information section following this procedure.
You need the Console (c) role privileges to operate the Oracle ILOM Remote System Console (Plus).
The Java Runtime Environment (JRE) must be installed on your local system. If the system shipped with Oracle ILOM 3.2.1 or later, JRE 1.6 must be installed. Alternatively, JRE 1.5 must be installed.

To launch the Oracle ILOM graphical remote console from the SP web interface:

Verify that the default KVMS settings provided in Oracle ILOM match your desktop environment:
1. In the web interface navigation pane, click Remote Control > KVMS.
2. In the KVMS Settings page, ensure that the video redirection state is enabled, and then verify that the appropriate mouse mode option (absolute or relative) is enabled.
  For best performance, absolute mode is typically selected for Oracle Solaris–based operating systems, and relative mode is selected for Linux-based operating systems.
  
  Tip – To toggle the keyboard or mouse input between the managed server and the local desktop, press: Alt+m (for mouse) or Alt+k (for keyboard).

For Windows Internet Explorer (IE) web browser users, register the 32-bit JDK file on your local system before launching the Oracle ILOM Remote System Console (Plus) feature.
1. In the Windows Explorer window, click Tools > Folder Options, and then click the Files Types tab.
2. Select the JNLP file, browse to its location, and then click OK.

To launch the Oracle ILOM Remote System Console (Plus), click Remote Control --> Redirection > Launch Remote Console.
