Window Features
The DSWebview software consists of a Node Manager and a Video Viewer window. When you
launch the DSWebview software, the Node Manager appears. The Node Manager allows you to
view, access, manage and create custom groupings for all of the supported DS and CPS appliances,
EVR1500 environmental monitor and control appliances, SPC power control devices and generic
appliances in your data center.
You can place your cursor over a port and select Connect from the floating option menu in the
Node Manager to launch a Video Viewer window. The Video Viewer window allows you to
control the keyboard, monitor and mouse functions of individual servers.
The DSWebview software also contains drop-down menus and floating option menus. The drop-
down menus contain many of the commands available in the DSView management software
window. A floating option menu appears when the cursor is placed over an item in the DSWebview
software window.
Figure 5.2 shows the DSWebview Client interface window areas, and descriptions are listed in
