Remote console not working with java 1.6

MBA92 — Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:27:09 GMT

Hi,

I'm facing an issue with Remote Console on a DL380 G5 with an ilo 2 fw revision 2.15.

I can access the ilo from my firefox browser, and then I launch the remote console.

A popup comes up with the following message "Connecting", it keeps displaying this message,

and nothing happens.

I've checked with the network guys, the ports are open, java console doesn't log any error.

Any Help appreciated thanks in advance.

What client OS is this? Does the Integrate Remote console (activeX app) work?

I currently experience this in Linux ( LinuxMint 15 running Oracle JRE 1.7_51)

In iLO2 v2.23 we added the "Permissions" attribute to the JAR manifest file. This should allow Java Remote console to open with JRE 1.7_51 and later

Edit:

I figured that I could successfully open iLO2 Java Remote Console if I disable TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 in the Java Control Panel. It seems Java Runtime Environment versions 7 and 8 have a broken TLS implementation.

iLO2 supports up to TLS 1.0 so, I suspect JRE has a bug that prevents it from negotiating the TLS 1.0 protocol when either TLS 1.1/ TLS 1.2 is enabled.

Worked for me on a Mac. Great to have a functional iLO on such an old server!

Thank you!
