Multi Chassis Operation - HP 400338-001 - KVM Switch Owner's Manual

Rackmount Console Switch Owner's Manual
Shared Access
If both users need to access the same server in the base unit, they can 'share' access
to it through the Rackmount Console Switch. Sharing means that both consoles
can view a server port at the same time, but only one can enter data through
the keyboard or mouse at any given moment. As soon as the active console
stops all keyboard and mouse activity, the other console can take control
of the server.
For information on access across multiple Rackmount Console Switch units, see
'Multi Chassis Operation' below.
Multi Chassis
Operation
Multi chassis operation involves independent access only.
Both users can simultaneously and independently access any server attached
to the base Rackmount Console Switch unit. Similarly, independent access is
possible across expansion units as long as each user is accessing a different
expansion unit.
