Solaris Remote Console Session Requires Java Plugin
When you launch a Remote Console session on a Solaris system, the system prompts
you for a decision regarding the javaRKVM.jnlp file. You have the following two
options:
● If you are logged in as root, choose the option to open this file with its default
application.
● If you are logged in as a user other than root, do the following:
1. Choose the option to save the file.
2. The javaRKVM.jnlp file will be downloaded and must be run manually.
The download manager will display the location of this file.
3. Move the javaRKVM.jnlp file to the /tmp directory.
% mv /location_of_javaRKVM.JNLP/javaRKVM.JNLP /tmp
Where location_of_javaRKVM.JNLP is the directory where javaRKVM.JNLP
resides.
4. To find the location of the javaws application, type the following in a terminal
window:
% which javaws
5. Execute the following command from the terminal window:
% /location_of_javaws/javaws /tmp/javaRKVM.JNLP
Where location_of_javaws is the directory where javaws resides.
For example, assume the javaws application is run from the /usr/bin directory:
% /usr/bin/javaws /tmp/javaRKVM.JNLP
This will open a Remote Console session. Once the remote console window is
closed, the /tmp/javaRKVM.jnlp is removed.
Pop-up Blocker Must Be Disabled to Run Remote
Console on Firefox
If you have a pop-up blocker enabled in the browser that is running the Remote
Console through the ELOM web GUI, the Remote Console is blocked from
launching on Firefox. If you do not see the Remote Console, check to see if the built
in pop-up blocker has blocked it.
