Active Console Viewer window

This topic describes the Active Console Viewer window in IBM Director.

Introduction

You can use the Active Console Viewer to see who is currently logged in to the IBM Director Server. Start the Active Console Viewer to display a list of all active consoles attached to the server, which includes the user ID logged in, the host name of the system that the user logged in from, and the date and time the user logged in. The window is automatically updated as users log into and log off from the server.

A console user can use this window to send a message, either as a pop-up event or as a ticker tape message, to one of the users listed.

Menubar

User >
