Connect to IPMI and launch the Virtual Console
You connect to the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) web GUI to launch the Virtual
Console, which you use to access advanced system options.
Before you begin
You have configured the IPMI port. See Configure the IPMI port for remote management on page
28.
NOTE:
You can use the Virtual Console to power-cycle the OmniCube host and access System Setup.
From System BIOS > System Security, you can enter a new setup password, to prevent
unwanted system access, and save the password to a secure location. Contact Customer
Support before changing any BIOS settings.
Tip:
The Virtual Console is compatible with different browsers and versions of Java. If you see errors
while launching or using the Virtual Console, you might need to try a different browser or Java
version.
Procedure
1. Log in to any computer in the same network as your IPMI.
2. Type the IPMI IP address into your browser. For example: http://110.150.0.12.
3. Log in with the default user name root and the default password calvin.
NOTE:
Enter the new password if you changed the default when configuring IPMI.
4. Select Server > Virtual Console.
