Change RCCMD Target
The RCCMD appliance is more than just a small tool to handle just VMware hosts. On unchecking the checkbox and pressing
Save changes, RCCMD changes to the local mode:
All VMware menus will be disabled and the Shutdown settings will switch to local options:
Due to the fact, RCCMD can not just receive, but also send RCCMD shutdown signals, it is possible to use an RCCMD
appliance as a central RCCMD relay that runs with complete customized additional scripting.
When local mode is active, RCCMD provides the following command sequences:
Shut down system
RCCMD will shut down the server it runs on.
RCCMD shut down relay
With this option, RCCMD will forward a valid RCCMD shutdown to
- Single IP addresses
- An IP address range
With this option, it is possible to get advanced redundancy options - as an example, you may combine a CS141 and a second
RCCMD client – if both advice a shutdown, the target RCCMD system will execute the command.
Wait some seconds
RCCMD will wait a customizable time window until the next command in the list will be executed.
System restart
RCCMD will restart the complete RCCMD server that runs within a virtual machine
Custom command
Start programs, run kill-commands, run your own scripts, just enter the command and mandatory extensions and RCCMD will
do the rest.
