Install Software Using Remote KVMS

Note:

SPARC M8 series servers do not support Oracle ILOM Remote System Plus Console or KVMS configuration properties. SPARC M8 series servers support the Oracle ILOM System Remote VNC Console. For further details, see Connecting to the Oracle ILOM Remote System VNC Console.

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).
  • Java 7 update 131 or later must be installed. TLS 1.1 and 1.2 must be enabled in the Advanced Settings of the Java Control Panel.

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

  1. 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.

      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).

  2. For Windows Edge 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 file dialog, click Tools > Folder Options, and then click the Files Types tab.
    2. Select the JNLP file, browse to its location, and then click OK.
  3. To launch the Oracle ILOM Remote System Console (Plus), click Remote Control --> Redirection > Launch Remote Console.
