console

[lastgreatone]

I have an hp color monitor connected to an hp K420 internet server that I would like to remove, but a better use, and replace it with a vt100 console. I halted the system unplug the color monitor and plugged the console. I thought it would have automatically detected the console and I would get a display, but not the case. Any one tried something like this but succeeded?

Hi Frankie,

You have to change the console display path in the PDC.

Hope this helps.

when you say a vt100, do you mean an HP async console emulating vt100?

If you have a choice, using an HP smart terminal will be more satisfactory than a vt100. Tools such as SAM and swinstall and Glance are quite cumbersome in a dumb terminal like vt100 (or a vt100 imitator).
