Using Virtual KVM

The Virtual KVM feature of LO100 is a remote graphic console that turns a supported browser into
a virtual desktop and provides full control over the display, keyboard, and mouse of the host server.
The operating system-independent console supports graphic modes that display remote host server
activities, including shutdown and startup operations.

Virtual KVM is available by purchasing the Lights-Out 100i Advanced Pack. For more information,
see

“LO100 optional (licensed) features” (page 6)

.

When connecting to the Virtual KVM applet for the first time, the applet reports an error. To clear
the error and connect to the Virtual KVM applet, close your browser session, and then reconnect
to the Virtual KVM applet.

The Virtual KVM applet is not compatible with standard VNC clients and does not implement
standard VNC protocols. You must use the supplied Java applet to connect to the server. The Virtual
KVM applet cannot pass the F10 key sequence to the target system. To work around this issue,
use the virtual keyboard on the remote server to transmit the F10 key.

The remote graphic console requires JVM version 1.4.2 or later in the client system. To download
the recommended JVM for your system configuration, see the HP web site

To start the LO100 remote graphic console using a web browser:

1.

Log in to LO100.

2.

Click Virtual KVM / Media. The LO100 remote graphic console window appears.

NOTE:

The Virtual KVM / Media option is an advanced feature available through license

upgrade and not available on all G6 systems unless the license is purchased. This link may
appear as Virtual Media or not at all depending on your system implementation. To verify
which features are supported on your system, see

“LO100 optional (licensed) features” (page

6)

for more information.

3.

To take full control of the system, click OK, or to access the system in a view-only mode, click
Cancel.

Before using the mouse in LO100 remote graphic console, HP recommends synchronizing your
local mouse pointer and the remote mouse pointer. For more information, see "

“Mouse

synchronization” (page 36)
