<PRE>Hi,

Le lundi 10 janvier 2011 02:30:42, Michael Scherer a &#233;crit :
&gt;<i> As Thomas noted on irc, the server bios, dirac and others are quite
</I>&gt;<i> outdated, but I do not think we could update it ( as this is not our server,
</I>&gt;<i> but a rented one).
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>The idrac is already the latest version 1.57 (Build 12).

&gt;<i> Rafael, you confirm that we should not update ( we can do it using
</I>&gt;<i> dirac, but I would really have your approval before, and I will take
</I>&gt;<i> care of it, as you may have better thing to do during work hours ).
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>The idrac and bios is not to be updated by end user, there is feature to 
automaticaly deploy updates on reboot when needed.

&gt;<i> I tested the dirac interface :
</I>&gt;<i> it worked quite great, except that there is a trick to make it work. I
</I>&gt;<i> used a laptop ( not mine ) running Ubuntu 10.04 ( not mine, as i said )
</I>&gt;<i> with the proprietary java of oracle version 1.6. The java webstart
</I>&gt;<i> system didn't worked, I had to start it by hand 'javaws /tmp/kvm.jnlp'.
</I>There is a bug on ubuntu version of java, hopefully it's not present in 
mandriva (and i hope in mageia too ;)

&gt;<i> The system  do not let us use vnc ( blocked for security reason, but i
</I>&gt;<i> guess that because they do not want too much fiddling with it and
</I>&gt;<i> overloaded support ). I suspect that parsing the jnlp to get the proper
</I>&gt;<i> parameter should work, but didn't searched much.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>You can't, there is a web proxy already between the idrac interface (on 
private lan) and the end user.

&gt;<i> The bios didn't recognized the arrow on my keyboard, and the uefi ( yeah
</I>&gt;<i> there is bios and uefi ) did behave weirdly with my mouse, it is used to
</I>&gt;<i> provides various wizard to install your server, etc.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>Plz keep it in mbr boot and network boot for bios/idrac update.
The arrow can be used by disabling num-lock and use the numerical pad of 
keyboard.

Best regards.
</PRE>
