configuring VS for Dell idracs
Has anybody configured a VS for Dell idracs ? I am able to create the VS and the web portion of the app works great. But when they try to start a remote ssh console into the server, the web console just spins and spins. I suspect it may need a side band session set up for the remote console, but i am just guessing. The sys admins have over 20 idracs that they want to route through 1 Virtual Server, and i was able to get them all working using cnames pointing to a single VS, with traffic policy that routes them to the correct pool with the idrac in it and a rewrite policy. But unable to get the remote ssh console working. The idracs seem to run alot of java scripts to start up alot of their functions. Any advise would be greatly appreciated. I am sure i cannot be the only person trying to get this to work.

Rocky213 do you have all the pool members configured in one pool or are you using multiple pools with individual pool members? It might be possible if they are all within one pool but I don't think this is possible if you are using individual pools for each iDrac.

they each have a separate pool. I am routing to each pool based on hostname. I created a bunch of cnames for each host and then use a traffic policy to route to the individual pool which has only a single idrac in it as a member.

What I am thinking is if inside those javascripts there is the ip/hostname of idrac itself
If that's the case browser might trying to reach idrac directly instead of vip
Can you examine those JSs?- rocky213a

i will see if can look at the JS thru developer tools in the browser. and also get a tcpdump as well.
