If your dell DRAC 5 card does not give you the option of a Java Console, you might have an old DRAC firmware, older
\nthan 1.40 perhaps.
\nYou should check in the properties tab the firmware version. If it is older than 1.40, you can get 1.45 from
\ndell’s page

\nthat will be an .exe file, so download it into a windoze PC and run it. It will uncompress and give you a file
\ncalled “firmimg.d5”
\nYou will use that file to upgrade your drac firmware.

\ntransfer it to the server in question. if you have linux and all the OM tools installed, you just need to run this
\ncommand while you are in the directory where you put the “firmimg.d5” file.
\n# racadm fwupdate -p -u -d .
\nThat will upgrade your DRAC5 firmware to level 1.45, which includes the java console feature. Now enjoy
\nyour console.
