Remote Console (Dual-Cursor)

All the features discussed in the "Remote Console (on page 52)" section are available when using dual-cursor. When selecting this option, two cursors are on the screen: the main cursor and a secondary cursor within the dual cursor frame. When passing the main cursor across the Remote Console frame, the secondary cursor will track to the main cursor.

The mouse cursor of the client computer appears within the Remote Console as a cross-hair symbol. Some iLO users prefer to see exactly where the client computer mouse cursor is located. For best performance, be sure to configure the host operating system display as described in "Optimizing Performance for Graphical Remote Console (on page 54)."

The dual-cursor option is your only Remote Console option if you choose not to download an updated Java™ Runtime Environment. The dual-cursor option is supported with Java™ 1.1 VM and later. To synchronize the remote and local cursors if they drift apart:

1.Right-click, drag, and move the local crosshair cursor to align with the mouse cursor of the remote server.

2.Press and hold the Ctrl key and move the local crosshair cursor to align with the mouse cursor of the remote server.

You might prefer the dual-cursor option because you can see where the cursor exits the Remote Console applet window. HP recommends using the Remote Console dual-cursor mode with text-based operating systems.

When operating in dual-cursor mode, the local cursor assumes the shape of the remote cursor. The cursor appears as a single cursor if the local cursor and the remote cursor are perfectly aligned and the hardware acceleration is set to Full on the managed server.
