Redirected Video and the CE Desktop Application In the Endurance server, CE video output is redirected to the IOPs. To accomplish video redirection, the server uses kernel mode drivers and the CE Desktop application, an application that runs on the IOPs and displays CE video output in a window on the IOPs. To display CE video, you must run the CE Desktop application. Virtual Network The Endurance server includes a virtual network that provides LAN-style connectivity between the CEs and each IOP. This connectivity is independent of any public (redirected) CE or private (IOP) network adapters. It uses the Windows operating system resource sharing to provide connectivity between the CEs and IOPs regardless of whether the IOPs have dedicated network cards installed. Endurance Manager The Endurance Manager is a management application for the Endurance server. This application provides both a Windows-based GUI and a command prompt interface through which you can monitor and manage your server. You can install the Endurance Manager on a remote client, enabling you to monitor the system from another location. Endurance Configuration Utility The Endurance Configuration Utility enables you to define the Endurance server's hardware configuration and to store that configuration information in the appropriate locations of the Windows Registry. You use the Endurance Configuration Utility to configure the server initially, and also after making any changes to the Endurance server hardware configuration. Fault Detection and Event Reporting Endurance software continuously monitors the server. If it detects a fault, the Endurance server isolates the fault and deconfigures any affected components, ensuring that the server remains operational by automatically using the redundant components. The fault detection and reporting process occurs seamlessly, and in a fully operational Endurance server, it maintains complete server availability. The Endurance software reports all events, including general status, state changes, and faults, to the Windows event logs or displays them in windows as they occur.

redirection, the server uses kernel mode drivers and the CE Desktop application, an application
that runs on the IOPs and displays CE video output in a window on the IOPs. To display CE
video, you
must
run the CE Desktop application.

The Endurance server includes a virtual network that provides LAN-style connectivity between
the CEs and each IOP. This connectivity is independent of any public (redirected) CE or private
(IOP) network adapters. It uses the Windows operating system resource sharing to provide

The Endurance Manager is a management application for the Endurance server. This
application provides both a Windows-based GUI and a command prompt interface through
which you can monitor and manage your server. You can install the Endurance Manager on a
