Why are the remote RACADM and Web-based services unavailable after a property change?

It may take a while for the remote RACADM services and the Web-based interface to become available after the iDRAC6 Web server resets.

The iDRAC6 Web server is reset after the following occurrences:

When the network configuration or network security properties are changed using the iDRAC6 Web user interface

When the cfgRacTuneHttpsPort property is changed (including when a config -f <config file> changes it)

When racresetcfg is used

When the iDRAC6 is reset

When a new SSL server certificate is uploaded

Why doesn’t my DNS server register my iDRAC6?

Some DNS servers only register names of 31 characters or fewer.
