Integrated Remote Console (vKVM)
The Integrated Remote Console (IRC) offers a remote console interface for Windows clients
running Internet Explorer. The iLO 2 MP graphical IRC provides Virtual Keyboard, Video
(monitor), and Mouse (vKVM) capabilities with KVM over IP performance. The IRC data stream
is encrypted, enabling you to securely view and manage the server.
The vKVM functionality enables a user with console access right and the Advanced Pack license
to do the following:
• View the server graphics console and control the keyboard and mouse, as if you were
standing in front of the remote server
• Access the server from any location on the same network
• Perform maintenance activities.
• Diagnose server failures interactively
• Perform a controlled reset of the server, regardless of the state of the host operating system,
and remain connected to monitor the reboot process
• View a complete boot sequence following an automatic server recovery event
• View a log of remote console events
• Modify login passwords without administrator access right
• Remotely change the configuration parameters of the IRC
Because the iLO 2 MP IRC is hardware-based, it is available regardless of the state of the operating
system.
IRC Requirements and Usage
The IRC feature is only available if you have the iLO 2 MP Advanced Pack license. If the iLO 2
MP is not licensed to use the IRC, see the Licensing page under the Administration tab to activate
the Advance Pack license.
Internet Explorer version 6 with Service Pack 1 and above is the only supported browser for this
feature. Windows is the only supported client operating system on HP Integrity servers for
vKVM. Additionally you must allow downloading and usage of signed ActiveX controls.
Only one user has access to the IRC at a time. You must have console access right to use this
feature. If you do not have console access right, see the User Administration page under the
Administration tab to add this access right.
The IRC runs as an ActiveX control that is downloaded to clients running Internet Explorer 6.0
with Service Pack 1 and above on Windows clients. No additional software is required on the
remote server or client system.
The ActiveX control automatically downloads from the iLO 2 MP on the first client connection.
The IRC uses encryption and compression to provide a secure connection.
