What is CommandCenter?
CommandCenter is a network management device for aggregating and
integrating multiple servers and network equipment typically deployed
in a datacenter and which are connected to a Raritan IP-enabled
product.
Why would I need
CommandCenter?
As you deploy more and more datacenter servers and devices, their
management becomes exponentially complex. CommandCenter allows
a systems administrator or manager to access and manage all servers,
equipment, and users from a single device.
Which Raritan products does
CommandCenter support?
CommandCenter supports all Dominion products
- Raritan’s KVM over IP products - Dominion KX
- Raritan’s Secure Console Server products - Dominion SX
- Raritan’s Remote office management products - Dominion KSX
CommandCenter also supports Paragon II when used with the optional
IP user stations.
How does CommandCenter
integrate with other Raritan
Products?
CommandCenter uses a unique and proprietary search and discovery
technology that identifies and connects to selected Raritan devices with
a known network address. Once CommandCenter is connected and
configured, the devices connected to CommandCenter are transparent,
and operation and administration is extremely simple.
Is PDA access possible?
Generic answer: "Yes", as long has PDA has a Java-enabled browser
and supports 128-bit (or lower strength for some geographies) SSL
encryption. Call Raritan Tech Support for further information. No
testing has been done in this area.
Is the status of
CommandCenter limited by
the status of the devices which
it proxies?
No. Because CommandCenter software resides on a dedicated server,
even if a device being proxied by the CommandCenter is turned off,
you will still be able to access CommandCenter.
Can I upgrade
to newer
versions of CommandCenter
software as they become
available?
Yes. Contact your authorized Raritan sales representative or Raritan
Computer, Inc. directly. CommandCenter 2.0 has a CD/ROM drive to
facilitate upgrades. New version upgrades can also be done via FTP.
How many target devices
(ports) and/or Dominion units
and/or IP-Reach units can be
connected to
CommandCenter?
There is no specified limit to the number of ports and/or Dominion
and/or IP-Reach units that can be connected, but the number is not
limitless: the performance of the processor and the amount of memory
on the hosting server will determine how many ports can actually be
connected.
Is there any way to optimize
the performance of Microsoft
Internet Explorer if it is my
preferred Web browser?
To improve the performance of Microsoft IE when accessing the
console, disable the “JIT compiler for virtual machine enabled,” “Java
logging enabled,” and “Java console enabled” options. From the main
menu bar, select
Tools > Internet Options > Advanced
. Scroll down
until you see the above items and make sure that they are
not
checked.
What do I do if I am unable to
add a console/serial port to
CommandCenter?
Assuming the console/serial device is a Dominion, ensure that the
following conditions are met:
- The Dominion unit is active.
- The Dominion unit has not reached the maximum number of
configured user accounts.
