unlocked icon if it is not. Secure mode is set when an appliance is added (see Adding Units
on page 119) and can be changed from the Operations menu (see Managed Appliance
Settings on page 145).
NOTE: WebUI status and DCHP status fields are also available for supported DSR switches; see the DSR switch

Multiple unit operations from a Units View window
From a Units View window, you may delete one or more units (see Deleting Units on page
124) or assign access rights for one or more units (see About Access Rights on page 143).
You may also use the Operations button/menu to initiate certain actions on one or more units.
• Hiding units from view - see Showing and hiding units on page 112
• Reboot - see Importing data on page 254
• Show version - see Managed Appliance Settings on page 145
• Push or pull names to/from the appliance - see Manual name push on page 128 and
Manual name pull on page 128
• Wall power on, off or cycle - see Power Device Sockets on page 160
• Change unit properties - see Unit Properties on page 136
Custom operations defined in plug-ins may also be listed in the Operations menu.
A given action will be available only if at least one of the selected units supports the action. If
a selected unit does not support the operation, it will be reported as such in the results window.
When one of these multiple unit operations is initiated and confirmed (if needed), a system task
is created that will perform the operation on each unit. The Multiple Unit Operation window
will open, indicating the operation has been submitted. This window contains a link that
directs the user to the Operations Results window for the task.
To initiate and view results from multiple unit operations from a Units View window:
1. In a Units View window (see Accessing Units View windows on page 111), initiate the
multiple unit operation as described in the procedures referenced above. If prompted,
confirm the operation.
2. The Multiple Unit Operation window will open, indicating the operation has been
submitted.
If you do not want to view the results of the operation, click Close and skip the rest of
this procedure.
