Description

 

 

Server name

Allows you to assign a descriptive alias, such as the name of the

 

server to which the selected KVM port is connected. Only

 

alpha-numeric characters, hyphens (-), and underscores (_) are

 

accepted. The new alias replaces the default port name in the

 

list of ports as shown here:

Lockout Macro

Allows you to enter the key sequence to lock the server’s

 

display. It allows the KVM connected servers to automatically

 

switch to locked state when the AlterPath Viewer is closed or an

 

idle time-out occurs.

 

In addition, when a user tries to access a KVM connected server

 

with a full or read-write permission, the lockout macro

 

command is sent to the server to lock the current user and

 

display the new login window.

 

See “Lockout Macro Key Sequences” on page 48.

 

 

Power Outlet

Allows you to enter one or more numbers that identify power

 

outlet or outlets into which the server that is connected to this

 

KVM port is plugged.

 

When PMs are daisy-chained, the outlets on the second and

 

subsequent PMs are numbered sequentially. For example, if two

 

eight-outlet AlterPath PMs are daisy-chained, you would use

 

the number 12 to specify the fourth outlet on the second PM in

 

the chain. You can enter up to twenty characters, so you can

 

specify up to four outlets. See “Controlling Power While

 

Connected to KVM Ports” on page 41 for details. Also see “To

 

Power On, Power Off, or Reboot the Connected Server” on

 

page 335, if needed.
