Starting
The following two methods are available to start the server.
„
Running Maintenance Tools from the management PC via LAN
„
Running Maintenance Tools from the management PC via direct connection (COM B)
For the procedure for starting Maintenance Tools with Remote Console, refer to the online
document of NEC DianaScope.
IMPORTANT:
„
Do not change the boot device order in BOOT menu in BIOS
SETUP. NEC EXPRESSBUILDER cannot be used if the DVD-
ROM drive is not the first device to launch the system.
„
Use the standard LAN port for LAN connection.
„
Use the serial port B for direct connection.
„
To use this feature, you need to create a configuration file (3.5-inch
floppy disk) that includes communication method between the
server and the management PC, and various setup parameters. Use
NEC DianaScope or run "System Management" menu from NEC
EXPRESSBUILDER to create a configuration file. Save the
configuration file into the root directory of the floppy disk as the
following file name.
– File name: CSL_LESS.cfg
„
If you exit the BIOS SETUP by unusual way (e.g. forced power-off
or reset), the redirection process may fail. In such a case, setup
again by using the configuration file.
