<div>
yeah that makes sense to me , now that you mention it <br />
<br />
thanks for this
</div>


<div>
also make sure you check console reset , it is some where in the GUI , I think under system is a &nbsp;setting to reset console , rebooting the server apparently is not the same thing<br />
<br />
so reset console in the GUI , look carfully and find it <br />
<br />
reboot and reset fixed this perhaps not really sure
</div>


<div>
thanks , it is fixed now , we not sure exactly what fixed it ,

I am attempting to use a super micro 3u BB super server sys-5037MC-H8TRF blade server &nbsp;to install esx remotely , I have an issue where whatever I do I cannot seem to pass any commands thru the virtual ( or other ) keyboard , I also cannot seem to get it to mount a ISO to install the esx ,<br />
<br />
I am thinking that this is a java or a browser problem , what version of java is best and what browser is best ?<br />
<br />
the firmware is 03.19 and it was bought in late 2014 <br />

i CANNOT seem to get the virtual storage to not be greyed out , &nbsp;<br />

Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux. Linux is generally associated with web and database servers, but has become popular in many niche industries and applications.

Linux

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.

Server Hardware

Hardware includes cell phones and other digital living devices, tablets, computers, servers, peripherals and components, printers and scanners, gaming consoles, networking hardware such as routers, hubs, switches and modems, storage devices and security equipment such as firewalls and other appliances.

Hardware

Virtualization is the act of creating a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, including (but not limited to) a virtual computer hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or computer network resources. Virtualization is usually the creation of a system that executes separate from the underlying hardware resources, or the creation of an entire desktop for systems located elsewhere, similar to thin clients.

Virtualization

Java application servers that support the Java EE platform and features include JOnAS from Object Web, WildFly (formerly JBoss AS) from JBoss, Geronimo from Apache, TomEE from Apache, Resin Java Application Server from Caucho Technology, Blazix from Desiderata Software, Enhydra Server from Enhydra.org, and GlassFish from Oracle. Commercial Java app servers include WebLogic by Oracle, WebSphere from IBM and the open source JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (JBoss EAP) by Red Hat.
