Viewing and resynchronizing server connections
The Servers category retrieves and displays the servers in the LCM8/LCM16 switch database as
well as information on how the servers are connected to the selected switch.
The Path column displays the current server connection. This can be to either a CO cable or a
cascaded switch. If connected to a CO cable, the CO cable's ARI port is displayed. If connected to
a cascaded switch, the switch channel is also displayed.
Modifying a server name
You can use the OBWI to rename a server from a remote workstation rather than from the OSCAR
interface.
