Dell Chassis Management Controller Version 6.0 for PowerEdge M1000e User’s Guide

Managing Servers With iKVM

The iKVM is an analog switch matrix supporting up to 16 servers. The iKVM switch uses the OSCAR user interface to select and configure the servers. In addition, the iKVM includes a system input to establish a CMC command line console connection to CMC.

If you have an active console redirection session and a lower resolution monitor is connected to the iKVM, the server console resolution may reset if the server is selected on the local console. If the server is running a Linux operating system, an X11 console may not be viewable on the local monitor. Pressing <Ctrl><Alt><F1> at the iKVM switches Linux to a text console.
