<h3 id="rzahqvirtualconsolecon">Windows console</h3>
<p>You interact with your integrated server using a Windows console. Depending
on your configuration of hardware and software, you can use a monitor, keyboard,
and mouse that is attached by one of the following methods:</p>
<dl><img src="delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />
<dt class="bold">Directly attached monitor, keyboard, and mouse</dt>
<dd>You can use a monitor, keyboard, and mouse that are directly attached
to the IXS card, an IXA attached xSeries&reg; server, or an iSCSI attached xSeries or BladeCenter&trade; server,
forming the integrated server console. You interact with the integrated server
through these devices exactly as you would with a regular personal computer
(PC).
<p><img src="delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />The iSCSI attached servers require some preinstallation
hardware set up. This set up is performed using the directly attached monitor,
keyboard and mouse.<img src="deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
</dd><img src="deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" />
<dt class="bold">Remote GUI desktop application</dt>
<dd>
<p><img src="delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />You can use an application such as Microsoft&reg; Terminal
Services, Remote Desktop, or another third party application to display the
server's graphical user interface (GUI) desktop on a remote workstation.
Most administration tasks that are normally performed on the server's directly
attached console can be performed on the remote desktop. See the Microsoft Terminal
Services or other third party application documentation for information about
how to configure and use a remote desktop for the server console.<img src="deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
</dd>
<dt class="bold">Virtual serial console</dt>
<dd>i5/OS&trade; provides the ability to connect to a virtual serial console for
a type 4812 IXS. This is similar to the i5/OS virtual serial console support that is
provided for iSeries&trade; logical partitions. It provides a text-mode console
for the 4812 IXS server and can be used for various administration tasks that
do not require access to a graphical user interface (GUI) desktop. See <a href="rzahqvirtualconsole.htm#rzahqvirtualconsole">Connect to the 4812 IXS virtual serial console</a> for information about how to establish a session
with the virtual serial console for a particular 4812 IXS.
<p>The virtual serial
console is currently supported for use with Windows Server 2003 only. It
can be used to view server errors or to restore communication to the LAN.
This console connection can be used before configuring TCP/IP on the server.
See the <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/system/platform/server/default.mspx" target="_blank">Microsoft Emergency
Management Services document</a>
<img src="www.gif" alt="Link outside Information Center" /> (www.microsoft.com/whdc/system/platform/server/default.mspx
) for information about the tasks that can be performed using the virtual
serial console. Note that:</p>
<ul>
<li>i5/OS does most of the configuration for the virtual serial console automatically,
so some of the configuration tasks mentioned in the Microsoft documentation
are unnecessary for the i5/OS virtual serial console.</li>
<li>The iSeries implementation does not require any of the additional hardware,
such as modems, concentrators, or cables, which are mentioned in the Microsoft documentation.</li></ul>
</dd><img src="delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />
<dt class="bold">Remote Supervisor Adapter II Graphical console redirection</dt>
<dd>For xSeries servers equipped with an RSA II, the RSA II also provides full
hardware based graphical console redirection, which means you can use a local
desktop to access and control a remote server.
