Status information appears on the right-hand side of the Home page and every page of the Remote Management Unit except for the Firmware page. The status information is updated automatically every 10 seconds. Changes to the status appear in the status window update, but may take approximately 10 seconds to refresh. You can also click Refresh Status to get an immediate update of the system.

The menu headings also appear at the top of every page. To access the functionality under the menu heading, click the specific menu heading. The first time that you connect, the Remote Management Unit prompts you for your username and password, then displays the opening page for that menu.

Depending on your screen resolution settings, you may have to scroll to see all status info.

Time Display

The time displayed is either regular time or power-on time. Regular time is Month/Date/Year time, such as Nov/21/2004 19:28. Power-on time is Power On Cycles (POC)/Power On Hours (POH), such as POC:00121, POH:00002:07:45.

POH is the number of hours, minutes, and seconds that the system has been on since the current boot occurred.
