Hi.

I have an R620 which has iDrac7 (I think), and, I'd like to know how I could access the recovery console it has (which I've seen screenshots of online), since, I did the redirection with console to COM2, and, if I stick a serial cable into the back of the server and open Putty up, I get a list of short commands first and then I can see post messages and BIOS as if I were looking at a screen through Putty.

However, I can't bring up any of the recovery console stuff that I can see on some sites.

Any thoughts? I can't find anything in the manual for the server or Idrac7.

 

Thanks.

 

(I need this for training purposes, to simulate DR in case iDrac fails)
