14 Configuration
Java Plug-In
The Scalar DLC Management GUI requires the Java 2 plug-in 1.5.0_10 release. Installing the plug-in
enables direct Java 2 applets to run while using Sun’s JRE (Java Remote Environment). Therefore, the
j2re-1_5_0_10-windows-i586-p.exe file must be executed so that files are added to a specific directory.
Begin the procedure by selecting the hyperlink associated with the Java Plug-in. Save the file to a temporary
directory and then launch it.
The same update procedure should be executed when the Management GUI is used with the remote Scalar
DLC host.
Launch the Management GUI from a Browser
Enter the Hostname location of the Scalar DLC server on the browser. This procedure establishes a
connection with the Scalar DLC home page. See
Figure 6 on page 12.
When the Scalar DLC home page appears, press the Launch Java Interface button. The Scalar DLC
Logon dialog window appears (see Figure 8 ).
Figure 8 Scalar DLC GUI Logon Dialog
The default login settings are shown in Table 5 .
Note
The Java plug-in patch is also required for both the Microsoft Internet Explorer and
Netscape Navigator browsers if you want to use the applet-based GUI (refer to
Launch
the Management GUI from a Browser on page 14) rather than application-based
( Launch the Management GUI as an Application on page 15).
However, the Internet Explorer browser installs the Java plug-in patch automatically
when the browser-based Management GUI is launched for the first time.
You must update the Netscape Navigator browser manually.
Note
Due to security restrictions, disk write operations (upload) are not allowed from the
browser-launched Scalar DLC Management GUI.
