Control a controller using screen sharing
You can use the screen sharing feature of Mac OS X to view and control the screen of a
SAN metadata controller over the network.
Connect to a metadata controller using screen sharing:
1 In Xsan Admin, select Computers in the SAN Assets list.
2 Select the metadata controller you want to observe or control.
3 Choose “Connect using Screen Sharing” from the Action pop-up menu (gear).
If you have trouble sharing the screen of a remote computer, check the Sharing pane
of System Preferences on the remote computer and make sure Remote Management
service is turned on. If the computer is a Mac server, you can also turn on remote
management in the Server app or Server Admin. The Server app is included with
Mac OS X Lion Server, and Server Admin is included with Mac OS X Server v10.6 Snow
Leopard and earlier.
Connect to a controller using SSH in Terminal
You can use the Secure Shell (SSH) command-line tool to log in to a SAN metadata
controller over the network.
