Why are the remote
RACADM and Web-based services unavailable after a
property change?
It may take a while for the remote RACADM services and the Web-based
interface to become available after the iDRAC6 Web server resets.
The iDRAC6 Web server is reset after the following occurrences:
• When the network configuration or network security properties are
changed using the iDRAC6 Web user interface
•When the
cfgRacTuneHttpsPort property is changed (including when a
config
- f < config file > changes it)
•When
racresetcfg is used
• When the iDRAC6 is reset
• When a new SSL server certificate is uploaded
Why doesn’t my DNS server register my iDRAC6?
Some DNS servers only register names of 31 characters or fewer.
