Opening an exclusive KVM session
An exclusive KVM connection is used when you need to access a port while excluding all other
users. When a port is selected with the Exclusive KVM connection setting enabled, no other user in
the system may switch to that port.
To open an exclusive (non-shared) KVM session from the DSView 3 Explorer:
1. In a Units View window containing the target device you want to access (see Accessing Units
View windows on page 88), click the alternate actions arrow in the Action column of the target
device. A list of actions will appear.
2. Click the Exclusive KVM Session link.
The Video Viewer launches in a new window. A yellow dot will appear next to the icon of the
target device in the Units View windows to indicate an Exclusive KVM connection. Other
users may not share that session.
To open an exclusive (non-shared) KVM session in the Unit Overview window:
1. In a Units View window containing the target device you want to access (see Accessing Units

2. Click Exclusive KVM Session .

The Video Viewer launches in a new window. A yellow dot will appear next to the icon of the
target device in the Units View windows to indicate an Exclusive KVM connection. Other

control if no other user is currently active.
When you click OK , the primary user who is currently active will receive a request to allow
sharing unless Allow shared connections automatically has been enabled (see Video Viewer
session properties on page 201). If the user confirms, then you will be given active access to
