Ch 2: HPAA System Boot Up
Network Server Division
2-15
Using the Keyboard, Mouse, and Video
Once the HPAA system is powered up and all the NetServers are in
the array, it is important to always make sure when using the
keyboard and mouse that it is in the correct “context” of the
NetServer.
And it is important to make sure the video displayed is
for the NetServer expected.
Video
This is the easiest to keep in correct context. By default when the AA
4000 software is installed, the backgrounds of the desktops on both
IOPs are changed.
The background of IOP1 will have a tiled graphic
for Marathon with the word IOP1.
The same is true for IOP2 except
obviously, it will have the work IOP2.
The other video context is for
the CEs and though it is possible to be looking at a video of CE1
versus CE2, the two screens will always look the same since they are
in “lockstep.”
Using Two Monitors
In the AA 4000 Users Guide and Installation Guide, an array is
typically cabled similar in logic to the diagram below:
If two video monitors are used, then to view a particular server in the
array, locate the monitor for the tuple you want to view, then use the
video switch on the SSDL to switch between CE and IOP video.
