Execute Diagnostic Commands Enables the user to run diagnostic commands
You can use Active Directory to log in to the iDRAC6 using one of the
following methods:
• Web-based interface
• Remote RACADM
• Serial or Telnet console
The login syntax is the same for all three methods:
<username@domain>
or
<domain>\<username> or <domain>/<username>
where username is an ASCII string of 1–256 bytes.
White space and special characters (such as \, /, or @) cannot be used in the
user name or the domain name.
NOTE:
You cannot specify NetBIOS domain names, such as Americas, because
these names cannot be resolved.
If you log in from the Web-based interface and you have configured user
domains, the Web-based interface login page lists all the user domains in the
pull-down menu for you to choose. If you select a user domain from the pull-
down menu, you should only enter the user name. If you select This iDRAC,
you can log in as an Active Directory user if you use the login syntax described
earlier in this section.
You can also log into the iDRAC6 using Smart Card or Single Sign-On. For
more information, see "Configuring iDRAC6 for Single Sign-On or Smart
Card Login" on page 187.
NOTE:
The Windows 2008 Active Directory server supports only a
<username>@<domain_name> string with a maximum length of 256 characters.
