Unable to Launch iDRAC After Updating Java to 7u51
Good Afternoon,
After getting three new PowerEdge R620s setup and initially connecting to iDRAC and successfully launching the console, I updated Java to 7u51 and am now unable to launch the console. This behavior is confirmed for both Firefox and Internet Explorer.
You could add the dracs to the Java exception site list
Exception Site List:
The Exception Site List feature allows end users to run Java applets and Java Web Start applications that do not meet the latest security requirements. Rich Internet Applications that are hosted on a site in the exception site list are allowed to run with the applicable security prompts.
Hi Chris, i can now only access our IDRAC6 Enterprise cards by either rolling back to an older java Version or by installing a local VM with Windows XP and IE8 - seeing that these iDRACs are usually needed in a spiffy when alarm bells are ringing, such configuration orgies are the last thing an admin needs! As Microsoft further crippled their IE11 by limiting the compatibility settings one cannot even fall back to this browser.
Any ETA for a Java JRE 1.7.0_51 and IE11 compatible IDRAC firmware?
I had the same issue on version Java 7 Update 55 on a mac. I changed the security settings in the Java Control Panel to "Medium". This solved the problem for me.
