Using Virtual KVM with Remote Desktop Protocol

104 Chapter 11

Connecting to a system through Virtual KVM using Remote Desktop Protocol

When you connect through the Connection window, and a Virtual KVM

connection is configured, you now see:

• The terminal monitor button, which connects to the raw ASCII SAC console

• A mouse button (next to the monitor icon), which connects to the Virtual

KVM graphical interface

• The manage button, which connects to the SAC GUI screen

To connect through Virtual KVM using Remote Desktop, follow these steps:

1. Click on the mouse icon.

2. Click OK in each of the three Java confirmation request windows.

The applet first checks whether the optional Virtual KVM Assistant is

installed on the system. Then:

• If the applet is installed, it starts Virtual KVM Assistant to manage the

connection.

• If the applet is not installed, the attempt to launch the Virtual KVM assis-

tant fails, and the applet tries to launch the connection directly.

• If the Virtual KVM Assistant is not installed, a message indicates that

the first connection attempt failed. A second message indicates that the

second connection attempt succeeded. This is normal behavior if the

applet does not find the Virtual KVM Assistant. (For more information,

see "Virtual KVM Assistant" on page 112.)
