## About
|
|
|
|
Allows access to the iDRAC 6 console without installing Java or messing with Java Web Start. Java is only run inside of the container and access is provided via web interface or directly with VNC.
|
|
|
|
Container is based on [baseimage-gui](https://github.com/jlesage/docker-baseimage-gui) by [jlesage](https://github.com/jlesage)
|
|
|
|
# Usage
|
|
|
|
See the docker-compose [here](https://github.com/DomiStyle/docker-idrac6/blob/master/docker-compose.yml) or use this command:
|
|
|
|
docker run -d -p 5800:5800 -p 5900:5900 -e IDRAC_HOST=idrac1.example.org -e IDRAC_USER=root -e IDRAC_PASSWORD=1234 domistyle/idrac6
|
|
|
|
The web interface will be available on port 5800 while the VNC server can be accessed on 5900. Startup might take a few seconds while the Java libraries are downloaded. You can add a volume on /app if you would like to cache them.
|
|
|
|
