HP ProLiant SL165z G7 Server - Manual (Page 37)

Using LO100 37
The Control menu of the remote graphic console has several different options.
• Virtual Media—Displays the Virtual Media Devices page. The Virtual Media Devices page displays
all accessible media drives of the storage server. Supported devices are CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, floppy
disk, and mass storage devices. For more information, see "Using Virtual Media (on page
40 )."
• Virtual Keyboard—Opens a virtual keyboard enabling you to change the language of the virtual
keyboard. To change keyboard settings, see "Remote graphic console settings (on page
37 )."
The Lock button on the Virtual Keyboard is added to each language. If you click the Lock button,
special keys that you press, such as Shift, Alt, Ctrl, context and Windows® remain in a pressed
status. To release the special keys, click the Lock button and then click the pressed special keys.
NOTE: When entering any ESC key sequences, extra characters might be buffered, causing
the remote side to receive function key presses incorrectly. To avoid this issue and perform
function key or alternate key sequences, press and hold the ESC key, release it, and then
press the other key sequence.
• Turn local monitor on—Powers on the local monitor.
• Turn local monitor off—Powers down the local monitor.
When the Turn local monitor off setting is enabled, the local monitor (if connected) appears black
(blank/off) when Virtual KVM is invoked. This is a security feature. The local monitor returns to
normal operation after closing Virtual KVM.
The Virtual KVM applet is not compatible with standard VNC clients and does not implement
standard VNC protocols. You must use the supplied Java™ applet to connect to the server. The
Virtual KVM applet cannot pass the F10 key sequence to the target system. To work around this
issue, use the virtual keyboard on the remote server to transmit the F10 key.
• Refresh Screen—Updates the information on the screen.
• Take Full Control—Enables you to take control of the remote console if you are currently in view-only
mode. Only one remote console user can control the remote console at a time.
• Disconnect Session—Disconnects the selected user session.
• Relinquish Full Control—Releases control of the session and remains in a view-only status.
• Exit—Closes the remote session.
NOTE: The Keyboard, Refresh Screen, Take Full Control, Disconnect Session, and Relinquish
Full Control menu options are an advanced feature available with full Virtual KVM access
only.
