Connecting the VTM Ports to a Network
Each ftServer 2900, 4900, and 6900 system includes two integrated Virtual Technician
Module (VTM) ports (see item 11 in
), which enable remote access to the
VTM console. The VTM console enables system administrators, the
, or your
authorized Stratus service representative to remotely control, monitor, and diagnose
problems on your system, even when the operating system is not responsive.
To connect the VTMs to a network, you need two UTP cables with RJ-45 connectors.
Connect one end of each cable to a VTM network port. Attach the other end of each
cable to an Ethernet wall jack or a switch.
After installing and starting the operating system, configure and test the VTMs, as
described in one of the following manuals:
Stratus Automated Uptime Layer for Windows-based ftServer Systems: Installation
and Configuration
(R002W)
Stratus Automated Uptime Layer for Linux-based ftServer Systems: Installation
and Configuration
(R013L)

Technician Module User’s Guide
(R642).
