About the Video Session Viewer
Use the Video Viewer to conduct a KVM session with the target devices attached to a switch using the
OBWI. With the RAK installed, the OBWI displays the KVM Session links on the Target List page (also
referred to as the home page). In addition to the list of devices, additional options and pages associated
with remote KVM access are available. When you connect to a device using the Video Viewer, the target
device desktop appears in a separate window that contains both the local and target device cursors.
To use the remote access feature, install the RAK, and then configure the network setting using the OSD
or by establishing a terminal session through the DIAG port.
The switch OBWI software uses a Java-based program to display the Video Viewer window. The switch
OBWI automatically downloads and installs the Video Viewer the first time it is opened.
Java 1.6.0_11 or later is required to launch a video session.
The switch OBWI does not install the Java Resource Engine, which is available as a free download from
Sun (
http://www.sun.com
).
The switch OBWI uses system memory to store and display images within Video Viewer windows. Each
opened Video Viewer window requires additional system memory. An 8-bit color setting on the client
device requires 1.4 MB of memory per Video Viewer window. A 16-bit color setting requires 2.4 MB of
memory, and a 32-bit color setting requires 6.8 MB of memory. If you attempt to open more Video Viewer
windows than your system memory allows (typically four windows), you receive an out-of-memory error
and the requested Video Viewer window does not open.
If you attempt to access a device that is currently being viewed by another user and your preemption level
is equal to or greater than the preemption level of the other user, you are prompted to preempt the other
user. Also, the Appliance Administrator can disconnect an active user through the Active Session screen.
