Oracle x86 Products Accessibility
can be inaccessible features for sight-impaired users. The product HTML documentation
provides context and descriptive text available to assistive technologies to aid in interpreting
status and understanding the system. System-level descriptions and status indicator
interpretation can be found in the product Service Manual. The documentation also provides
diagrams and screenshots that do not rely on color. Within the diagrams, callouts indicate the
referenced component information. The callout descriptions are mapped within a table. All
images and tables in the documentation include descriptive alternative text.
Another method to obtain information about the system is to use the built-in Oracle Integrated
Lights Out Manager (ILOM). Oracle ILOM provides a browser-based interface and a
command-line interface that support assistive technologies for real-time viewing of system
status, indicator interpretation, and system configuration. For details, see "Oracle ILOM
Accessibility."

Oracle ILOM Accessibility
You can use the Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) browser user interface
(BUI) to monitor and manage the server hardware. The Oracle ILOM BUI does not require
a special accessibility mode; rather, its accessibility features are always available. The BUI
was developed using standard HTML and JavaScript and its features conform to accessibility
guidelines.
To navigate a BUI page and select items or enter commands, you can use standard keyboard
inputs, such as using the Tab key to go to a selection, or the up and down arrow keys to
scroll through the page. You can also make menu selections by using standard keyboard
combinations.
For example, using the Oracle ILOM Open Problems BUI page, you can identify faulted
memory modules (DIMMs) or processors (CPUs) that would otherwise be identified by a lit
LED indicator on the motherboard. Likewise, you can use the Oracle ILOM BUI to monitor the
hardware power states that are also indicated by flashing LED indicators on the hardware.
The Oracle ILOM command-line interface (CLI) is an alternative and equivalent way to access
the Oracle ILOM BUI features and functionality. Because the operating systems that run on
the Oracle server hardware support assistive technologies to read the content of the screen,
you can use the CLI as an equivalent means to access the color-based, mouse-based, and other
visual-based utilities that are part of the BUI. For example, you can use a keyboard to enter CLI
commands to identify faulted hardware components, check system status, and monitor system
health.
