Understanding Interface Differences Between Itanium-based
Systems
Each Itanium-based system has a similar interface with minor
differences. You can navigate these menus with the arrow keys or “
v” and
“
^” keys, and use the Enter or spacebar key to select and deselect devices.
Selected devices have an asterisk (*) next to them. After making your
changes to this menu, select Save Settings to NVRAM and then Exit.
VGA and Other
Consoles Types
In the example menu shown above, the first four entries are identical
except for their VenMsg section, meaning each entry is actually the same
device, with different protocols for accessing the device. If the first entry
is selected, use an ANSI-capable terminal device to communicate with
the serial port. If the second entry is selected, use a VT100-capable
terminal device, and so on.
If you select either a system or an MP serial port, HP recommends you
choose a VT100-capable terminal device.
Serial port, Management Processor (MP) and VGA device paths can vary
between each Itanium-based system. Please refer to the appropriate
platform documentation for your product for information on determining
the device paths.
