SSP operation

Using the console

Starting the console from the Workspace menu

To start the console using the Workspace menu, complete the following 
steps:

Step 1. Move the pointer over the CDE workspace backdrop.

Step 2. Press and hold down any mouse button. The Workspace (root) menu 

appears.

Step 3. Drag the mouse pointer to the “V-Class Complex: complex_name” option.

Step 4. Release the mouse button to select the option.

Step 5. Drag the mouse pointer to the Console option.

Step 6. Release the mouse button to select the option.

Step 7. Select the desired V2500/V2600 complex. 

NOTE

If the desired V2500/V2600 Complex name is not listed in the menu, 
restart the Workspace manager. The desktop Workspace menus are 
updated whenever a node is configured or deconfigured, but the new 
menus are not activated until the Workspace Manager is restarted. 

Step 8. Select Console menu. 

Step 9. Select Node X/complex. The new console window appears.

Starting the console using the sppconsole command

This method of starting the console works from the SSP or after logging 
on ot the SSP from another system.

To start the console using the 

sppconsole

 command, complete the 

following steps:

Step 1. Select a shell window by placing the mouse pointer in the window.

Step 2. If more than one V-Class complex is connected to the SSP, use the 

set_complex

 command to select the desired complex by entering: 

set_complex

.

An output similar to the following will be displayed. Enter the desired 
complex from the list provided.
