Hot Key Sequences to Access Blade Chassis

The use of hot key sequences to switch KVM access to a blade chassis is supported.

For blade chassis that allow users to select a hot key sequence, those options will be provided on the Port Configuration page.

For example, the Dell PowerEdge M1000e allows users to select from a list of default hot key sequences.

The hot key sequences specific to the M1000e are listed in the "Switch Hot Key Sequence" drop-down when the M1000e is selected.

For blade chassis that come with predefined hot key sequences, those sequences will be prepopulated on the Port Configuration page once the blade chassis is selected.

For example, the default hot key sequence to switch KVM access to an IBM BladeCenter H is NumLock + NumLock + SlotNumber.

This hot key sequence is applied by default when IBM BladeCenter H is selected during the configuration.

See your blade chassis documentation for hot key sequence information.
