Viewing boot and crash capture videos
You can view the video recordings of:
Last three boot cycles A boot cycle video logs the sequence of events for a boot cycle. The boot cycle videos are arranged in the
order of latest to oldest.
Last crash video A crash video logs the sequence of events leading to the failure.
This is a licensed feature.
iDRAC records fifty frames during boot time. Playback of the boot screens occur at a rate of 1 frame per second. If iDRAC is reset, the
boot capture video is not available as it is stored in RAM and is deleted.
NOTE:
You must have Access Virtual Console or administrator privileges to playback the Boot Capture and Crash Capture videos.
The video capture time displayed in the iDRAC GUI video player may differ from the video capture time displayed in other video
players. The iDRAC GUI video player displays the time in the iDRAC time zone while all other video players display the time in the
respective operating system time zones.
NOTE:
The reason for the delay in boot capture file availability is because the boot capture buffer is not full after the host boot.
Default /inbox SLES/RHEL video players do not support the MPEG-1 video decoder. You need to install a MPEG decoder
supported video player and play the files.
MPEG-1 format videos are not supported in MAC OS native player.
To view the Boot Capture screen, click Maintenance > Troubleshooting > Video Capture.
The Video Capture screen displays the video recordings. For more information, see the iDRAC Online Help.
NOTE: When embedded video controller is disabled and server has add-on video controller, then certain latency is expected with
respect to boot capture. Hence, End of Post Messages of a video will be recorded in next capture.
