Limitations Of The Irc Mouse And Keyboard; Communicating In English - HP Integrity BL870c Operation Manual

You can view the list of supported operating systems and browsers on the HP website at
www.hp.com/go/integrityilo.
Only one user has access to the IRC at a time. You must have console access right to use this
feature. If you do not have console access right, see the User Administration page under the
Administration tab to add this access right.
You must allow downloading and usage of signed ActiveX controls. The IRC runs as an ActiveX
control that is downloaded to clients running Internet Explorer 7.0 with Service Pack 1 and above
on Windows clients. No additional software is required on the remote server or client system.
The ActiveX control automatically downloads from iLO 2 on the first client connection.
The IRC uses encryption and compression to provide a secure connection.
NOTE: When working on multiple systems, controls for each system are displayed on a separate
screen for each server. Additionally, you must allow downloading and usage of signed ActiveX
controls.
Before running the IRC, note the following:
1. Verify that the IRC is available. Only one user can control the IRC at a time. If a remote
console session already exists on the system, you are notified that IRC use is unavailable.
To determine if the remote console/IRC is available for use, click Remote
Console Integrated Remote Console. If Launch is grayed out and the Maximum
console number has been reached status message appears, the remote console/IRC
is in use by another client.
2. Verify that you have console access right on the User Administration page, or if the right
must be granted.
3. Verify that the system is licensed for IRC use. View this information on the
Administration Licensing tab. For more information, see
Advanced Pack Licensing" (page
4. Disable any popup-blocking applications. Popup-blocking applications prevent the IRC
from running.
5. Accept the IRC certificate. Refusing to accept the IRC certificate causes a red X to be displayed
in the IRC and prevents the IRC from working on that client.
6. If you are using a Japanese keyboard on a Windows operating system, but are communicating
in English, make sure the keyboard layout is set to Japanese. This ensures that the Japanese
keyboard is properly working while running the IRC.

Limitations of the IRC Mouse and Keyboard

The IRC does not yet provide identical virtualization of the Windows keyboard. Some known
issues are:
• No support for system-level commands such as Ctrl + Esc, or Print Screen.
• Pressing the Ctrl key locks the virtual mouse. Releasing the Ctrl key unlocks the virtual
mouse.
• No support for simultaneous mouse click and keystroke combinations.
• The web session will timeout after 15 minutes if no mouse or keyboard activity is detected
in the web interface and the vMedia, RSC, or IRC are not launched. An inactivity timeout
configuration option is currently unavailable.
• A slight delay might be observed between the physical and virtual mouse pointer.
