Remote Management Unit Overview
Your Dell PowerVault 124T LTO6 SAS autoloader includes an Ethernet interface that allows remote
administration. The interface, called the Remote Management Unit (RMU), includes a Web server that
provides a Hypertext Markup Language (HTML)-based graphic user interface (GUI) for ease of use.
The RMU performs many of the same functions as the front panel interface. These functions include moving
tapes, system operations options, networking options, security options, running diagnostic tests, and
performing system updates.
NOTE: Only use the Diagnostics commands when the autoloader is known to be idle and unavailable
to host backup/restore applications. If a Diagnostic command is issued during a drive or autoloader
operation, the unit will respond that it is busy. However, if a Diagnostic command is issued and then
a backup or restore job runs, that job may fail.
NOTE: To log out of the system, you must close your browser.
Default Username and Password
The default username for the RMU is admin. The default password is password.
The username and password are case sensitive and should be entered in all lower case letters. The
default username and password are valid if no usernames have been configured.
Opening the RMU
The RMU has an HTML interface, which means you use a browser to open it. The following Web browsers
are supported:
For Microsoft® Windows® — Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 or later
For Microsoft Windows Server® 2003 — Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or later (with latest security
patches)
For Redhat® 2.1 — Mozilla™ 1.4.2
Firefox™ 1.0
If security is enabled, you need an operator password to access the Library Operations page, and you
need an administrator password to access the Configuration, Error Logs and Diagnostics, and Firmware
pages.
When using the RMU with Microsoft Internet Explorer, be sure to enable the Allow META REFRESH option.
On version 6.0 of Internet Explorer, this feature is controlled through the Tools > Internet Options menu
selection, under the Security tab.
