VNCserver on Itanium

[Petrovichev Eugene]

i have got a server under HP-UX 11.23 ia64
i need to install oracle database, but the prerequisite is that in the user environment must be the variable DISPLAY. i decided to install vncserver but found that this software is for PA-RISC only. i need something like vnc but for Itanium platform/

You should look for an X-Display software on your PC, or work from a linux machine with a graphical display.

Then jo need to "export DISPLAY=:0.0"

To test if it works, run xclock.

This is the step i used to follow for getting GUI for oracle installation...


1. install xmanager on desktop
2. open port in network firewall ( between server & your desktop) to enable x11
3. check the required java version is installed on server
4. login as oracle user
5. export server display to your desktop ( export DISPLAY=:0.0 )
6. just open xmanager on your desktop (no need to take connection from desktop)
7. Run the installer for oracle

this will satrt a gui installation window on your desktop

>but found that this software is for PA-RISC only.

VNC should probably work under Aries. Try installing it and see.
