When I launch the virtual console for the server my iDRAC is installed on, I am able to see the screen and to click on the logon buttons, however when I want to type anything.no text is passed to the console. I dug a little bit on the Internet and found two suggestions: • Problems first appeared after I changed the IP address on the iDRAC config. After some digging, I was able to get my keyboard working again within the Virtual Console Native Plugin by updating the firmware. [Note:, but it did not solve my problem] • I had a defective iDRAC expansion card with outdated firmware. I replaced the card with one running the current firmware (because I was also unable to update the firmware remotely) and the problem was solved. [Note: Wow.strange.

IDRAC is built into my Dell system's motherboard, Poweredge R710] • I just had the same issue. Miami Dade Artificial Reef Program Louisiana. Login to your DRAC and change the console type from Native to Java. Once I did this i could use my keyboard. It seems to be a problem with iDRAC plugin on my local computer. [Note: This does not appear to be possible with iDRAC 6, this tip must be for a previous version] •.by adding the new iDRAC IP to Trusted Sites in IE. [Note: We already did this via Group Policy and the iDRAC website is trusted] None of these things were problems for me, so I tried to run the console in Google Chrome.the browser I normally use for the Internet. I was able to login and when I tried to launch the console, a JNLP file downloaded to my computer to run.
