Can the console program of the conserver be run any machine other than
machine on which conserver is running ?

I have conserver installed on machine A.
but I want to install the console program of conserver on machine B and
use it from there.

The man page for console program says :

-Mserver
The console client program polls server as the pri­
mary server, rather than the hard coded default
(``console'').


but When I try the above I get the following error:


chandra-pc@14:58:33{37} console -M 10.41.66.50
console: missing machine name
chandra-pc@14:58:40{38} console -M 10.41.66.50:782
console: missing machine name


Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
Chandra

Definately. And you can have multiple conserver hosts and if you share
the .cf file between them they redirect the client to the appropriate
host automatically (I really need to document how to do that - it's on
my TODO list).

You're almost there. You just need to give it a console name (machine
name in the error - bad text - I'll change it to say console name) or a
'-x', '-w', or '-u' flag so it does something.

So, 'console -M 10.41.66.50 -x' or 'console -M 10.41.66.50 netapp' or
whatever.

Hope that helps.
