Raritan provides a
standard selection
of USB configuration profiles for
a wide range of operating system and BIOS level server
implementations. These are intended to provide an optimal match
between remote USB device and target server configurations.
The ‘Generic’ profile meets the needs of most commonly deployed target
server configurations.
Additional profiles are made available to meet the specific needs of
other commonly deployed server configurations (e.g. Linux, MAC OS-X).
There are also a number of profiles (designated by platform name and
BIOS revision) that have been tailored to enhance Virtual Media
function compatibility with the target server, for example, when
operating at the BIOS level.
‘Add Other Profiles’ provides access to other profiles available on the
system. Profiles selected from this list will be added to the USB
Profile Menu. This includes a set of ‘trouble-shooting’ profiles
intended to help identify configuration limitations.
The USB Profile Menu selections are configurable via the Console Device
Settings > Port Configuration page. Please refer to the ‘User
Guide’ for a description of the USB profiles available on your system
and configuration guidelines.
Should none of the standard USB profiles provided by Raritan meet your
target server requirements, Raritan Technical Support can work with you
to arrive at a solution tailored for that target. Raritan
recommends that you do the following:
- check the most recent release notes on
www.raritan.com/support/firmwareupgrades/
to see if a solution is
already available for your configuration
- if not, please provide the following information
when contacting Raritan Technical Support:
- target
server information, manufacturer,
model, BIOS
- the intended use (e.g. redirecting an image
to reload a server’s operating system from CD)
