4-54 Installing the Operating System and Utilities
The Functions of MWA
MWA enables the following functions by connecting to the standard BIOS and BMC of the server.
Remote Console Function
This function enables you to remotely monitor the server screen during POST (Power On Self-Test)
or booted DOS through MWA on a management PC. During the time, you can also key in data to
the server from the keyboard of the management PC.
IMPORTANT:
!
The COM B port on the server cannot be recognized on OS while using
the remote console function via LAN because BMC takes control over
it.
!
When you use the remote console function via LAN, the power control
of the server (power on/off or reset) should be executed through MWA.
Use the automatic connection to start the LAN remote console function
to this server. See the "MWA First Step Guide" to learn how to set the
automatic connection.
!
Exiting BIOS SETUP utility by unusual procedure (such as power-off or
reset) may disable the remote console function configured on the server.
!
In MWA remote monitoring via LAN connection, specify "Default" for
"Action at Remote Console Connect" command. If "Go MWA mode" is
specified, the OS of the server may fail to start. The "Go MWA mode"
command is available only when the OS works on MS-DOS.
Remote Drive Function
MWA allows you to boot the servers from the floppy disk drive or disk image file on the
management PC.
NOTE:
This function is available only for the management PC connected to
the server with LAN.
