Blade View
At the bottom of the main panel is a button labeled Blade
View, which toggles between Device view and Blade view. Click
on it to bring up the Blade View.

User Management

The User Management section allows Super Administrators,
and Administrators and Users who have been given User
Management permission, to add/edit accounts on the KVM
switch. If an account has not been given User Management
permission, the User Management icon will not show up in
the OSD when they log in. The User Management section is
displayed differently when accessing the OSD via web browser
or one of the non-browser clients. The web browser version
contains two sub-sections, one for Accounts and one for
Groups. The non-browser version contains one section, in
which both User accounts and Group accounts are displayed
in the list on the left side of the screen. The non-browser
version also includes filtering options below the User/Group
list.
Note: Administrators with User Management permission can only add/
edit Administrator and User accounts. Users with User Management
permission can only add/edit User accounts. Super Administrators can
add/edit all account types.
Adding User Accounts
There is a default Super Administrator account on the KVM
switch that can be used to set up the KVM switch. The default
Super Administrator username is administrator, and the
default password is password. It is strongly recommended that
you update this default accounts username and password
to something unique. To add a new user account, do the
following:
1. Highlight Users from the list on the left side of the page, and
then click the Add button at the bottom of the screen. The
user information page opens.
2. Enter in the appropriate information for the account you are
creating, and click the Save button when you are done. The
contents of the user information screen and their meanings
are described in the table below.
3. Upon clicking Save, a prompt appears to inform you that the
operation succeeded. Click the OK button to exit.
Blade View lists all of the blade servers (IBM and Dell servers)
and individual blades (HP servers) that are installed on the
system, and the ports (if any) that they are associated with.
To make an association from the blade view, you first select a
blade server or blade, then select a KVM port to associate it
with as follows.
1. Select the blade server or blade in the main panel.
2. Click Associate.
3. In the screen that appears, select the port that you want to
associate it with.
4. Click Save.
After the association completes successfully, the blade icon
appears next to the associated port in the Sidebar tree. To
access the device running on the blade, click on its entry in
the Sidebar tree.
Disassociating Ports
To break the association between a port and a blade or blade
server, simply select the association in the main panel, and
then click Unassociate.
