Status messages when configuration is running normally

 

These status messages help you identify whether you have connection problems.

These status messages indicate that you do not have connection problems:

Connecting

This appears at the remote console during an initial connection to the local console.

Connecting console or Connecting remote control panel

This status message is the normal status while the console is making the initial connection to a system. If it shows for more than a couple of minutes, see Connecting console in the list of status messages that indicate connection problems.

Pending authorization

This appears during an initial connection to a system when the Service Device sign-on window appears. This status remains until the first user signs on successfully, either at a local console or remote console. After the user signs on successfully, the sign-on window and this status do not appear to other dial-in users as long as the local console remains connected to the system. A local console over a network (LAN) always shows the LAN Service Device Sign-on window the first time a connection is made. Subsequent connections to the same system do not prompt the user again.

Connected

This appears at the local console after an initial connection to the system is completed (the user signed on successfully to Operations Console). This status also appears at the remote console when a connection to the local console is completed.

Disconnecting

This appears at the local console when the local console user disconnects from a system and the PC is disconnecting the connection. This status would appear at the remote console when the remote console user disconnects from the local console and the PC is disconnecting the connection.

Disconnected

This appears at the local console after the local console user disconnects from a system and the PC is no longer communicating with the system.

Not connected to local console

This appears at the remote console when the PC is not connected to the local console.

If the status message you received is not listed, see the Status messages when you have connection problems topic.
