Connecting to the Upgrade Side with Remote Desktop

Remote Desktop allows you to control the keyboard, video and mouse of the Upgrade Side through the Windows Remote Desktop component.

To establish a Remote Desktop Connection to the Upgrade Side

1.Click Remote Desktop in the navigation bar of the Active Upgrade console on the Production Side. The system opens a Remote Desktop Connection window.

2.When the window displays the login screen for the remote system, enter your administrative username and password and click OK. (Remember, you can use only an account in the local Administrators group, not a domain account.) The Upgrade Side desktop is displayed.

After you initiate the remote connection, see Related Topics for more information about what you can do on the Upgrade Side and how you can merge the system after you have finished performing upgrade tasks.
