Virtual Media not working properly on DL180 G6

[Sinan Polat]

I have a HP DL180 G6 server with ILO, I am trying to boot an image remotely (Virtual Media/ILO), but it doesn't work. I cannot see the loaded image in the BIOS, therefor I cannot boot from it.

Any suggestions? I have already updated to the latest firmware version.

Details:
IPMI Version: 2.0
Firmware Version: 4.21
Hardware Version: 1.0
Description: DL180 G6

Java version (client):
Java Plug-in 1.6.0_11
Using JRE version 1.6.0_11 Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM

Hi,

I think there is no LO100 Virtual Media pack installed on your server.

LO100 Virtual Media is available by purchasing the Lights-Out 100i Advanced Pack.

"LO100 optional (licensed) features" on page# 06

Thanks

Nope. Working poorly.

The whole "remote console" does not even take its own buttons like ctl+alt+del

after pushing that I'm not expencting any more dots to appear after

Wait for input... and still those appear.
