Remote console – HP Integrated Lights-Out 2 User Manual
Page 93
When you click Acquire, you are prompted to verify that you want to interrupt the other user's
Remote Console session. The other user receives a notification that another user has acquired the
Remote Console session after losing the connection. No prior warning is given. After you confirm
you want to proceed with the acquire operation, you are notified by an alert window that the
operation could take 30 seconds or longer to complete. The Acquire button becomes disabled
after it is clicked and the acquire operation is started. On browsers that support it, the button
changes to light gray to indicate it is disabled. Other browsers might not visibly indicate that the
button is disabled.
Only one acquire command is allowed every five minutes for all users. If another user has recently
acquired the Remote Console, clicking the Acquire button can result in a page informing you that
the five-minute acquire-disabled period is in effect. Close the window and re-launch Remote Console
again. The Acquire button is disabled in the new page until the acquire-disabled period expires.
When the Acquire button is enabled (this operation happens automatically, and you do not have
to refresh the page), you can attempt to acquire the Remote Console session again. On browsers
that support it, the button appears light gray to indicate it is disabled during this five-minute time
period. On other browsers, there may be no visible indication that the button is disabled. Therefore
you do not receive a visual indication when the timeout period expires.
Only one acquire attempt can be made per Remote Console session window. If you have successfully
acquired the Remote Console, and someone subsequently acquires it from you, you must open a
new Remote Console window to attempt to acquire the Remote Console session again.
