128 DSView Installer/User Guide
The following status IDs may display for target devices only:
• No Power - The target device is powered down.
• KVM Blocked - The connection path to the target device is blocked because a cascade
switch is already in use.
• Partial Power - The DSView software cannot determine the power state of the target
device, or the DSView software received a mixed power state from the target device. For
example, if a target device has a KVM connection and an SPC connection, the DSView
software will ask for a power status for both of these connections. If both connections do
not reply with ON or OFF, the power status will display as Partial Power.
The following status ID may display for managed appliances only:
• Not Responding - The managed appliance did not provide status information to the
DSView Server. This may occur for multiple reasons, including:
• The managed appliance is not powered up.
• The managed appliance is disconnected from the DSView system.
An icon will appear to the right of the Name column to represent the status of a unit. Table 4.1
lists and describes the status icons that may appear.
• Action - Displays the type of DSView session that may be initiated from the DSView software.
Although an EVR1500 environmental monitor, generic appliance or target device may have
multiple actions that may be performed (for example, a target device may be able to open using
a Browser Session and Telnet Session), only one action will appear in the Action column. The
action that appears is based on the precedence of the action. The precedence is determined by
the DSView software and whether the action may be performed on the unit. For example, a
target device only attached to a CPS appliance will not contain a KVM Session link in a Unit
