You need to have access to a host in the farm with X forwarding enabled. Using X compression will make the display respond quicker:
ssh -C -X <hostname>
Start the remote console tool via:
/share/doc/farms/Dell_Remote_Console_Switch_Software/Dell_Remote_Console_Switch_Software
Selection of the switches can be done via the tab Remote Console Switches, The following switches exist:
2161DS 03-53-33 the switch in the bulldozer cluster 2161DS 03-DD-F9 the switch in the server cabinet (named ruif)
On the tab Servers it is possible to connect to one of the attached hosts by double clicking the host name.
End a session by closing the containing window with the cross button in upper right corner.
