In this video, I will show you how to fix Java (Oracle JRE 1.8.0_221) to work with Dell's iDRAC6 (version 2.92 build 05) virtual console web start app. Please keep in mind, that the requirements to get this working may be version specific (both version of iDRAC6 as well as Java), but the general concept should apply.

I am so glad I found your channel yesterday - I'm just waiting for delivery of a Mikrotik 10G router / switch and learned a lot about the setup prior to it arriving and also have an R710 which I've just re-purposed and an IBM x3650 which I've modded to also include the SAS expansion board. Spent quite a bit of time catching up yesterday. Thanks for your content :)

Yet another wonderful video! Thanks for helping me access my Virtual Java console for iDRAC on windows 10. My java.security file was in C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_271\lib\security I also had to run notepad as administrator then open the java.security file in order to edit it an save it. I then went and forced windows to always open .jnlp files with Java Web Start. Wham bam! Bob's your uncle! Thanks so much.

Tip: if your eyes are burning from the java console window font scaling problem: Go to java bin directory: Find jp2launcher.exe: Right-click: Properties: Compatibility: Change Settings for all users: Change High DPI Settings: Check the box named "Override high DPI scaling behavior" and select System. Click the Ok's on the way out. You're welcome.

@lpseem3770 4 года назад

Thank You so much for this. I had to specify my login and password in javaws xml file and enable some ancient SSL alghoitms, but it is still better than Windows XP in VirtualBox. :) I check this stuff with HP iLO tomorrow.

@lpseem3770 4 года назад

II am happy to report: the same method works for older iLO. I removed all protocols from the list, except for MD2 and checked "Direct Connectopn" in Network Settings window. It is not the default Java on my system, so I care little about security in this matter. It's all behind a VPN and passed securely directly to the remote network anyway. Having access to console at reboot time makes a difference.

Hi. when i log in via osma to idrac6 I don't see system summery nor console or lunch console icon under system tab. my system: Dell R710 rev II. win2k8 r2. latest bios. idrac 2.92 llc 1.7.5.4. java 8.0. IE 11.

@ArtofServer 3 года назад

OMSA and iDRAC are 2 different things... iDRAC runs at the BMC level, even with the main system powered off. OMSA is a suite of applications you run within the OS that help management the system.

@Magicairsoft9 4 года назад

In Windows you can basically install java version 1.7 x86 for full compatibility, where you dont need to edit anything. Could be installed on Windows 10 with no problem. Also the native mode is possible without installing anything- only Internet Explorer, just edit security settings and youre good to go.

@majoraslayer64 2 года назад

In 2022 this is still a problem. I wish someone could develop a self-contained Java emulator that will run these older JRE applications, or at least one specifically made as an IDRAC viewer. I saw someone mention below a similar concept for a Docker image, but I can't seem to find a simple explanation of how to use Docker images. I'm also not sure if Docker works on Windows, which is where I'm usually trying to view my IDRAC. I've worked around this problem by installing an old, insecure version of JRE, but even then my 4k display doesn't properly scale the old IDRAC remote interface.

I'm having trouble connecting to an R610 with iDRAC 6 Express 2.92 and connecting from a RHEL 7.7 laptop with OpenJDK 1.8.0_222 and javaws icedtea-web 1.7.1 (rhel-2.el7_6-x86_64). FF 60.9.0esr and Chrome 77.0.3865.90 do nothing when I click on the `Launch Virtual Console` link. Before I updated to 2.92, FF would at least try to connect. Any tips?

@ArtofServer 4 года назад

First, I think you need iDRAC 6 enterprise, not express, to have the remote console feature. So, if that's not a mistype, that might be your problem. Also, I have found that OpenJDK gives me video problems and crashes vs Oracle JRE, so I might suggest using Oracle JRE if possible.

I did associate jlnp files with Java, but my idrac is saving the file as more than just viewer.jlnp, it is adding the IP Address, service tag, server model number, etc to the file extension. I.E.

might help if you can tell us what version of java, iDRAC, and OS you are using. also, would help if you tell us what error you get, or make a video to show it. otherwise, it's just shooting in the dark and i doubt that'll get you the answer you need. generally speaking, if you have the same version of Java/java web start, and iDRAC that I show in this video, the method above should work. if you haven't already, I recommend updating to the versions I show in this video as that should be pretty current at the time of this message.
