No display (blank screen) on system console of server

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • We have Red Hat Enterprise Linux OS installed on the server hardware.
  • All the services are working well and the server is accessable over network via ssh
  • No display on monitor directly attached to server console.
  • Is there any way to get the display back on server console without disturbing running services?

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6
  • gdm
