Resynchronizing The Server List At The Remote Client Workstation

Once the iKVM module is connected, the blades are displayed in OSCAR. You must re-synchronize the servers on any remote workstation to ensure that the blades are available to any remote users connected to the console switch through the Remote Console Switch software.

1. Click Resync in the Server category of the Management panel. The resync wizard launches.

Your current local database names will be overwritten with the switch names. To include unpowered SIPs in the re-synchronization, select the Include Offline SIPs check box.
3. Click Next. A Polling Remote Console Switch message box is displayed with a progress bar indicating that the switch information is being retrieved.
4. If no changes were detected in the appliance, a completion dialog box is displayed with this information. If server changes were detected, then the Detected Changes dialog box is displayed.
5. Click Next to update the database.
   If a cascade switch was detected, the Enter Cascade Switch Information dialog box is displayed.
6. Select the type of switch connected to the appliance from the drop-down list. If the type you are looking for is not available, you can add it by clicking Add.
7. Click Next. The completion dialog box is displayed.
8. Click Finish to exit.
