After researching for a while I saw that it is a general problem. To overcome the problem of HP ILO (Integrated Lights-out) Virtual Media feature I use. By the ILO, the HP server from a remote computer from the web interface as connected with KVM able to control.

• Primarily located on the server by the ILO 2 port Ethernet cable hooked up.
• SmartStart CD to boot the server again, and I clicked on the icon of Maintenance.
• HP Lights-Out Configuration menu by entering the ILO IP address information entered according to my own network.
• Then my own computer with a web browser, enter the IP details screen I'm connected to the ILO.

 

 

• I input the Username and Password information.
• ILO Virtual Media feature include licensing requirements in order to use. You can use the link below to get the trial license.
