Selecting an action If the HP IP Console Viewer receives more than one primary action for a selected unit, because it has more than one connection type, the Action Chooser dialog box appears and prompts you to select a single action from the list of possible actions to perform. To select an action, highlight it and click OK. Closing the Video Session Viewer To close a Video Session Viewer, select File>Exit. Video session types When using the Video Viewer with console switches, you have several options of session types according to the rights of each user. You can choose to operate the KVM session to the target server in exclusive session, share a session, scan multiple servers, or monitor a server in stealth mode, depending on your access rights. Video session types affect both the display characteristics of the Video Session Viewer and the rights of other users to access the server. The current type of session is indicated by an icon displayed on the right side of the video viewer toolbar. Video session types are outlined in the following table. Session type Normal KVM Scanning Exclusive (HP IP Console Switches with Virtual Media only) Digital share: active (primary) (HP IP Console Switches with Virtual Media only) Description You are conducting a normal KVM session that is not exclusive but is not currently shared.
