Zusammenfassung:An apparatus for performing local service at a management console includes an accessory interface configured to engage a local service permission tool with a management console in a management enclosure for a computing system, the management enclosure having a closed position with predetermined boundary dimension and an open position, where during engagement with the management console, the local service permission tool prevents the management enclosure from being in the closed position. The apparatus includes a status module that detects whether the local service permission tool is engaged and an access module that disables one or more predetermined remote service functions of the management console in response to the status module detecting that the local service permission tool is engaged. A method and a system for performing local service at a management console perform similar functions to those of the apparatus.
