Hello, I have a remote R610 server on client's premises with PERC6/i and PERC6/e + MD1000 backup. The PERC6/i has 6.2.0 firmware (I will upgrade it locally in a another day as I have to visit there for this issue) and iDRac6 is version 1.3.0 build 24. At the moment I am using Windows XP as I have 1 user only (user number 2) who is administrator with all privileges set. I also checked this with racadm from the server itself and created another admin user from the command line to compare---no difference:
The problem is that when I want to configure virtual media at the system -> console/media web interface there is only a display of the current settings (detached) but no "configuration" option like is mentioned in the online iDRAC instructions. I have looked at the permissions of user 2 (administrator) in the web interface and have checked everything related to permissions, without any effect apparently. So when I open a console and then try to select virtual media (CD drive) from the virtual media menu, there are some images, and I can add images, but they are "read-only" and pressing the "complete mapping" button results in an error message. Also, booting the server and pressing F2 to enter the BIOS menu shows no virtual drives to boot from (even when I have a CD in the drive, or have added a an image and selected boot from virtual CD in the web admin interface). I'm not sure what I am missing but I am worried about not having any virtual media configuration capability in the web admin interface.
