Hi there,

I am running a Dell 1950 series 3 with an emulex fibre card in it running against a SAN. I need to disable a fibre card so that i can install vmware esx safely onto the local storage. I need to make sure that the fibre card is disabled as I do not want to install ESX on the wrong partition over the top of our production data. Normally i would just unplug the fibre cable from the back of the server but it is located at the other end of the m62 (an hours drive away!).

Is there a way i can do this remotely? The server has a DRAC remote access card in it.

Thanks

John
