Last updated on DECEMBER 27, 2021

Applies to:

Symptoms

When KVMS lock mode is set to Windows, Oracle ILOM works in conjunction with the standard Windows keyboard shortcut (CTRL-ALT-DEL) for locking/unlocking the Windows operating system desktop.

This only works on systems with Windows Operating System.

If the server is running LINUX Operating System, this will trigger a reboot loop.
