Installing and Running rshd.exe
To run the remote shell daemon, perform the following steps:
1. Run the setup.exe file on the Dell PowerVault™ Utilities Diskette to install the rshd.exe and cat.exe
utility files on the hard disk.
2. Click Start and then click Programs.
3. In the program list, click Dell OpenManage™ PowerVault™ Manager—>
PowerVault™ 50F Utilities—> rshd.
The remote shell daemon starts. The cat.exe is run from the rshd.exe file
4. After rshd.exe completes the download, stop rshd.exe by pressing <Ctrl-C>. To minimize any security
exposure, the remote shell daemon should be terminated.
Pop-up Help Dialog Box
The Pop-up Help dialog box displays all glossary help and warning messages in a single pop-up dialog box
instead of one pop-up per message. This pop-up dialog box can contain up to 100 entries, each with a time
stamp. The top item is deleted sequentially in order to display a new message when over 100 entries are
recorded. A single click on each item brings up a separate browser displaying glossary help or
troubleshooting information. The history is maintained upon browser reload/refresh. The history is cleared
upon exiting from the browser.
Browser reload/refresh closes all pop-up windows (Help dialog box, Performance window and Port Detail
window) properly without leaving orphan windows for the operating system to handle.
