      iLO is the same if you're not using Windows. It sucks.

          I'd build a VM in VirtualBox just for this reason.

              I even logged in to the DRAC with SSH and did a reset of it.

                All for something that's supposed to be "easy", FML.

                      I have not needed to use the iDRAC console in a couple of years now, and I had not realized that I still had to have f'n java installed in order to use it. WTF....

                      Pretty much the same for every kind of remote console, be it on an IBM, Dell or SuperMicro server or on an Aten IP KVM. PITA, big, nasty PITA.

                        How many of us have a VM on our workstation just for this? I know I do, and it's hard to get much smaller than we are and still need any IT.

                          Yup, using a VM for this. Yet another system to maintain.

                            I have a machine or VM (depending on client) running Veeam already so I drop java on that via chocolatey.
