Blade Chassis - Port Access Page
The blade chassis is displayed in an expandable, hierarchical list on the
Port Access page, with the blade chassis at the root of the hierarchy and
the individual blades labeled and displayed below the root. Use the
Expand Arrow icon next to the root chassis to display the individual
blades.
Note: To view the blade chassis in a hierarchal order, blade-chassis
subtypes must be configured for the blade server chassis.
Dual Port Video Groups - Port Access Page
Dual video port groups appear on the Port Access page as Dual Port
types.
The primary and secondary ports that are a part of the port group appear
on the Port Access page as Dual Port(P) and Dual Port(S), respectively.
For example, if the CIM type is DCIM, "DCIM Dual Port (P)" is displayed.
When you access a dual port video group from the remote client, you
connect to the primary port, which opens a KVM connection window to
both the primary and secondary ports of the dual port group.
Note: The dual video primary port is defined when the port group is
created.
Note: Two KVM channels are required to remotely connect to the dual
video port group by clicking primary port. If two channels are not
available, the Connect link is not displayed.
Note: The Action menu is not displayed when you click on a secondary
port in a dual video port group.
Note: You cannot connect to the primary port and secondary port at the
same time from the Local Port.
Port Action Menu
When you click a Port Name in the Port Access list, the Port Action menu
appears.
Choose the desired menu option for that port to execute it. Note that only
currently available options, depending on the port's status and availability,
are listed in the Port Action menu.
Connect - Creates a new connection to the target server.
For the KX II Remote Console, a new Virtual KVM Client page
appears.
For the KX II Local Console, the display switches to the target server,
and switches away from the local user interface.
