Before You Begin
This administrator’s and users guide provides background information and
procedures for installing, configuring, and administering the Cyclades™
AlterPath™ OnSite and for accessing connected servers and other connected
devices.
Audience
This manual is intended for system administrators of the OnSite and for users
who may be authorized to connect to devices, to manage power through the
OnSite, and to monitor the OnSite’s temperature.
This manual describes configuration, administration, and use of the OnSite
only. It does not describe how to set up and administer other external services
or servers that the OnSite may access for authentication, system logging,
IPMI control, SNMP notifications, data buffering, file sharing, or other
purposes. This manual assumes that users who are authorized to connect to
servers and other devices through the OnSite already know how to use the
connected devices.
