Using Remote Access Controllers
The Server Administrator Remote Access Service provides a complete remote system management solution for SNMP- and CIM-instrumented systems equipped
with a DRAC III /XT card. These hardware and software solutions are collectively known as remote access controllers (RACs).
The Remote Access Service provides remote access to an inoperable system, allowing you to get the system up and running as quickly as possible. The
Remote Access Service also provides alert notification when a system is down and allows you to remotely restart a system. Additionally, the Remote Access
Service logs the probable cause of system crashes and saves the most recent crash screen.
You can log in to the Remote Access Service through the Server Administrator home page or by directly accessing the controller's IP address using a supported
browser.
