150 Using the CMC Web Interface
Viewing the iKVM Status
The local access KVM module for your Dell M1000e server chassis is
called the Avocent Integrated KVM Switch Module, or iKVM.
The health status of the iKVM associated with the chassis can be viewed
on the Chassis Health page.
To view health status for the iKVM using Chassis Graphics:
1
Log in to the CMC Web interface.
The
Chassis Health page is displayed. The lower section of Chassis
Graphics
depicts the rear view of the chassis and contains the health
status of the iKVM. iKVM health status is indicated by the overlay of
the iKVM subgraphic:
• No overlay - iKVM is present, powered on and communicating with
CMC; there is no indication of an adverse condition.
• Amber caution sign - indicates that only warning alerts have been
issued and that corrective action must be taken.
• Red X - indicates at least one failure condition is present. This means
that CMC can still communicate with the iKVM and that the health
status reported is critical.
• Grayed Out - indicates that the iKVM is present and not powered on.
It is not communicating with CMC and there is no indication of an
adverse condition.
2 Use the cursor to hover over the iKVM subgraphic.
A text hint or a screen tip is displayed. The text hint provides additional
information on that iKVM.
3 Clicking the iKVM subgraphic selects the iKVM's information and Quick
Links for display to the right of the chassis graphics.
You can also view the iKVM Status page by clicking the status link in the
iKVM Quick Links on the right side of the chassis graphics.
