Console Redirection on VMware ESX Server Software and Dell PowerEdge Servers

Tags: poweredge, linux, server, software, management

Overview The inherent ability to secure-shell (ssh) into a Linux server provides the easiest method to remotely access a VMware ESX Server software. Sometimes a true console-view of a remote server is required. For these instances the Dell Remote Access Controller (DRAC) available on the Dell PowerEdge 1850 and 2850 provides true console redirection of a remote server. Another method to access a remote server involves configuring serial over LAN (SOL) redirection through the baseboard management controller (BMC) on the Dell PowerEdge 1850, 1855, and 2850.
