184 DSView 3 Software Installer/User Guide
To obtain read/write access:
1. From a shared SSH Passthrough or Avocent Session Viewer session where you have read-only
access, enter the following command:
^Eca
2. The user with read/write access receives a message that read/write access has been transferred
to the specified user.
3. You receive a message that the user has lost read/write access.
You now have sole read/write privileges to the SSH Passthrough or Avocent Session Viewer
session. Transferring read/write access generates DSView 3 software system events.
Disconnecting a session
To disconnect an SSH session:
1. From an SSH Passthrough session, enter the following command:
^Ec.
2. Your session is closed. If you had read/write access to the session, read/write access is granted
to a randomly selected user who is sharing the session.
Displaying session output
If a data log was created for the SSH Passthrough session, you can enter a command to display the
last 30 lines (limited to 16384 characters) of the data log on the SSH client. The last 30 lines may
include previous SSH sessions, but will only display target device output, not user actions.
NOTE: To display session output, data logging must be enabled and the user must have access rights to unit.
See Data Logging on page 167 and User Access Rights on page211.
To display session output:
1. From an SSH Passthrough session, enter the following command:
^Ecr
2. The client displays the last 30 lines of the data log.
-or-
If you do not have access rights or if a data log was not created, an error message is displayed.
Supported service processor commands
NOTE: SSH Passthrough port sharing is not supported if a server processor command is included at the end of
the SSH command.
When opening an SSH Passthrough session to a target device connected to a supported MergePoint
52xx manager, you may include a service processor (SP) command at the end of the SSH
command. If the SP command is not present at the end of the SSH command, the appliance may
provide the user with a menu of SP commands to choose from.
