With the Remote Console, you can observe POST boot messages as the
remote host server restarts and initiate ROM-based setup routines to configure
the remote host server’s hardware. When installing operating systems
remotely, the graphical Remote Console lets you view and control the host
server screen seamlessly throughout the installation process.
NOTE: Whenever the Remote Insight Lights-Out Edition resets the Remote Console
settings will change back to the default settings.
NOTE: While using 2 cursor mode, when you move the network client’s mouse pointer
over the remote host server screen displayed in the Remote Console, the local mouse
pointer will turn into a crosshair and the remote host server’s mouse pointer will remain
unchanged.
NOTE: If the colors displayed on the Remote Console screen do not appear to be correct,
you can adjust the color palette by clicking Settings and selecting the correct operating
system.
