Server mouse stops working AFTER using iLo II

Christopher Miller_4 — Wed, 14 Nov 2007 14:40:14 GMT

All,
My issue goes like this -
The server mouse, keyboard, etc.. is working fine. From a remote location i will access the server via iLo II - log in - do what i have to do - close the connection.
If i then manually go to the server and try to log in the mouse ceases to function. And i have to reboot the server to get it back.

Server is W2K3 SP1, Rompaq - Latest and greatest, Firmware - latest and greatest.

Anybody else experience this

The DL360G4 should be an iLO1 machine. Is this iLO firmware 1.91?

You are correct - my bad - It is a iLo (not iLo2)
This is actually happening on 2 servers, both being DL360 G4's - 1 server having FW of - 1.91 & the other having FW of - 1.89. I upgraded the one hoping to fix the problem - but it didn't

Christopher,

If you connect an USB keybd/mouse directly to the failed server to bypass the KVM, does this problem still exist?

Sorry, Not usb, but PS2 keybd/mouse.
