Hi all

I'm trying to get to grips with this one, but just can't figure it out. I recently acquired some 2nd hand Dell Poweredge 860 servers, and noticed that they have built in remote management interfaces. So, I have setup one, and assigned an IP address to it, but have no idea on how to access it remotely. Google'ing for an answer didn't bring me more than general product information about various different IPMI stuff.

So, how do I actually access these servers remotely? If possible, I'd like todo it via another CentOS server at the DC using SSH.

Dell's usually come with their openmange suite, so you might google for that. I think a java-enabled browser should connect and get an applet that looks more or less like vnc for console access. But you only need it when installing remotely or if something is wrong so you can't ssh to the main interface.

Dell usually has all their documentation and updates online. If this doesn't help you can probably find the full manual.
