Chapter 3: Working with Target Servers

Port Action Menu

When you click a Port Name in the Port Access list, the Port Action menu

is displayed. Choose the desired menu option for that port to execute it.

Note that only options available for the selected port are listed in the Port

Action menu:

 Connect. Creates a new connection to the target server. For the

Dominion KX II Remote Console, a new Virtual KVM Client (on

page 49) page appears. For the Dominion KX II Local Console,

the displ

y switches to the target server and switches away from

the local user interface. On the local port, the Dominion KX II

Local Console interface must be visible in order to perform the

switch.

Note: This option is not available from the Dominion KX II Remote

Console for an available port if all connections are busy.

 Switch From. Switches from an existing connection to the

selected port (KVM target server). This menu item is available

only for KVM targets. This option is visible only when a Virtual

KVM Client is opened.

Note: This menu item is not available on the Dominion KX II Local

Console.

 Disconnect. Disconnects this port and closes the Virtual KVM

Client page for this target server. This menu item is available

only when the port status is up and connected, or up and busy.

Note: This menu item is not available on the Dominion KX II Local

Console; the only way to disconnect from the switched target in the

Local Console is to use the hot key (see "Hotkeys" on page 248).

 Power On. Powers on the target server through the associated

outlet. This option is visible only when there is one or more

power associations to the target.

 Power Off. Powers off the target server through the associated

outlets. This option is visible only when there is one or more

power associations to the target, when the target power is on

(port status is up), and when user has permission to operate this

service.

 Power Cycle. Power cycles the target server through the

associated outlets. This option is visible only when there is a

power association (one or more) to this target and when the user

has permission to operate this service.
