Before You Begin
-
The following software requirements must be met on the managed SPARC host server:
-
Oracle ILOM firmware version 3.2.6 or later must be installed on the SPARC server (SPARC S7-2, M7, T7, and next generation series SPARC servers).
-
One of the following Oracle Solaris operating systems must be installed on the SPARC server:
Oracle Solaris 11.2 SRU8, Oracle Solaris 11.3 or later
-
The
solaris-desktop
package must be installed on the host server using the Solaris Image Packing Systems (IPS). For further information about using IPS, refer to the Solaris user documentation for adding and updating Oracle Solaris packages.Note:
After the installation of the
solaris-desktop
package, the xVNC server is enabled by default on the Solaris host server.
-
-
The following VNC viewer requirements must be met on the management station:
-
A VNC viewer, supporting TLS 1.2 encryption, must be installed.
For instance, TigerVNC is a VNC viewer that supports the required TLS encryption in both Windows and Linux environments.
-
A single Oracle ILOM Remote System VNC Console connection to the Oracle Solaris host VNC server is allowed at one-time.
-
-
The following properties in Oracle ILOM must be enabled:
-
The KVMS
servicestate
property in Oracle ILOM must be set to enabled. This property is enabled by default. If required, a user with Admin role privileges can enable this property from the command line by typing:set /SP/services/kvms servicestate=enabled
-
The Local Host Interconnect
hostmanaged
property must be set to True (default setting) and thestate
property should be set todisabled
(default setting) in Oracle ILOM. If required, a user with Admin role privileges can set these property from the command line by typing:set /SP/network/interconnect state=disabled hostmanaged=true
Note:
Oracle ILOM will auto-configure the Ethernet-over-USB connection points when the
state
property is set todisabled
(default setting) and thehostmanaged
property is set totrue
(default setting).Note:
If you set the
state
property toenabled
or thehostmanaged
property tofalse
after an interconnect management connection is automatically established by Oracle ILOM, the hosts applications currently running on the internal interconnect management connection will fail to run. For more information about configuring the Local Host Interconnect feature in Oracle ILOM, see Dedicated Interconnect SP Management Connection.
