Using iLO Virtual Media from the Remote Console
For instructions on using the Virtual Media feature from the Remote Console, see Remote
Console Virtual Media.
Shared Remote Console (.NET IRC only)
Shared Remote Console allows the connection of multiple sessions on the same server. This
feature can be used for activities such as training and troubleshooting.
The first user to initiate a Remote Console session connects to the server normally and is
designated as the session leader. Any subsequent user who requests Remote Console access
initiates an access request for a satellite client connection. A dialog box for each access request
opens on the session leader desktop, identifying the requester user name and DNS name (if
available) or IP address. The session leader can grant or deny access. If there is no response,
permission is denied.
Shared Remote Console does not support passing the session leader designation to another
user, or reconnecting a user after a failure. To allow user access after a failure, restart the Remote
Console session.
During a Shared Remote Console session, the session leader has access to all Remote Console
features, whereas all other users can access only the keyboard and mouse. Satellite clients
cannot control Virtual Power or Virtual Media.
iLO encrypts Shared Remote Console sessions by authenticating the client first, and then the
session leader determines whether to allow new connections.
