Everything was working fine accessing the Remote Console on my FreeNAS Mini from my OSX 10.10 system. At some point, (probably during a Java upgrade), the Remote Console JViewer applet stopped working correctly. I'd upgraded to the recommended Java 8 Update 60 JRE, and I'm guessing it's either incompatible, or there's some Java setting that's not set correctly. In this IPMI document from ASRock's website, it states in section 3.6.1 Console Redirection, on page 39;
"NOTE: A compatible JRE must be installed in the system prior to the launch of the JNLP file."
So the question is, what are the compatible JREs and versions for the ASRock Java Applets? You can only have one JRE on an OSX system at one time, and I can't downgrade the JRE so these applets can run. So either ASRock updates their IPMI BMC firmware, (I'm on the current 0.23.0), to update the applets for running with newer JREs, or I'm going to have to run VirtualBox and a VM in order to run these applets.
Version Info:
BMC Firmware: 0.23.0
KVM Remote Console Utility: 1.114.0
java version "1.8.0_60"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_60-b27)
Any other ideas are welcome.
