Rebooting the Managed System and Activating Console Redirection
Select option 4 in the main menu.
NOTE: You must be connected to the managed system’s BMC before you can configure the SOL
features. If SOL Proxy is not yet connected to the managed system’s BMC, you are prompted for an IP
address and a username/password combination. See "Connecting to the Remote Managed System’s
BMC" for more information.
The power state of the remote managed system is checked. If power is on, you are asked to decide
between a graceful or forceful shutdown.
Next, the power state is monitored until the status changes to off. Console redirection begins, and
the remote managed system text console is redirected to your management station. Use the escape
character sequence <~><.> to terminate it and return to the top-level menu.
While the manages system reboots, you can enter the BIOS system setup program to view or
configure BIOS settings. See Figure 3-16.
NOTE: Before activating the console redirection, you must first enable the console redirection features.
