types, sites, departments, location, and folders. However, none of these actions results in console switches
being deleted from the local database. The HP IP Console Viewer also provides the ability to rename
items in the database, including individual devices, sites, departments, locations, and folders.
NOTE: For legacy analog console switches (such as HP 2 x 16 KVM Server Console Switches,
HP 1 x 8 IP Console Switches, and Compaq legacy analog switches) if you delete or rename a
server through the HP IP Console Viewer, the OSD server list becomes out of date. For KVM
console switches with Virtual Media, you can delete or rename a server through the Servers
category in the Manage Console Switch window and the interface adapter and server name in
the main window are dynamically updated.

Managing local databases
Each workstation running the HP IP Console Viewer contains a local database that records all of the
information that is entered about the console switches and servers. If multiple workstations access a
server, you can configure them and save a copy of the database and load it onto other workstations to
avoid reconfiguring each one. You can also export the database for use in another application.
Saving local databases
The HP IP Console Viewer enables you to save a copy of the local database. The saved database can
then be loaded back to the same computers on which it was created, or it can be loaded on another HP
IP Console Viewer client station. The saved database is compressed into a single .ZIP file.
