Host storage device redirection: Mount an image file on the server service processor (SP)
and redirect that image to the host. Host storage device redirection is useful when installing
an operating system.
To launch a remote redirection session from Oracle ILOM, see the following procedures:

Access the Host Console From the Oracle ILOM CLI
You can use the Oracle ILOM command-line interface (CLI) to access the system console.
You can launch multiple console sessions from the Oracle ILOM command-line interface.
However, only the first current console session is granted read and write privileges. All other
sessions are read-only. Read and write privileges are reassigned when a user with read and write
privileges closes their session, and a new serial session is opened.
Before You Begin
Ensure that you have Console (c) role privileges in Oracle ILOM.
1.
Log in to the Oracle ILOM command-line interface.
For instructions, see “Accessing Oracle ILOM” on page 21.
2.
Type start /HOST/console.
A confirmation prompt appears.
3.
Type y to confirm that you want to access the host console.
You are now viewing the host console.
4.
If you are prompted for user credentials, enter the requested information to
access the host server operating system.
You are now logged in to the host server operating system through the serial console.
Note - To enter standard Oracle ILOM CLI commands, you must first exit the host serial
console.
5.
To terminate the console session press the Esc key and the left parenthesis key
(Shift+9).
Note - To send a break to the host, press the Escape (Esc) key and type uppercase B.
