Re: Connect UX server to VGA monitor
You can always connect to the console via the GSP if you have the GSP remote option enabled: try to connect to the GSP from your PC with a normal telnet session (you need to know the name or IP given to that GSP (See in /etc/hosts)

Re: Connect UX server to VGA monitor
You can either use Hyperterminal on a PC, connected via serial cable or lan/web console. If A class does not mean A180, there should be a built-in lan console in the server. A180 has built-in web-console.

SolutionWhat you could do is:
1) Find an old laptop -connect the existing serial cable to that and run hyperterm.
2) Buy a Secure Web Console - if you can still find one - this will give you LAN access to the machine
3) Buy the VGA/USB kit for this system - note IIRC these cards have to go in specific slots, so if you have existing cards you may need to move/remove them:

Re: Connect UX server to VGA monitor
We have several A-class and rp24nn in our enviroment and has no console connected to any of them. There is actually no need for it. Just configure the GSP processor and use as "LAN console" (for emergency needs). As soon as the server is up you can access it using Reflection or rlogin/ssh/telnet.

Re: Connect UX server to VGA monitor
About your 2├В┬║ question, to use the lan console you need to have the GSP (Guardian Service Processor) configured with the "EL : Enable/disable LAN access" option.
