EVS LSM-VIA - Setting up the Monitor Connectivity on LSM-VIA Workstation; Configuring an Active Directory on an Xclient-VIA

2.3.SettinguptheMonitorConnectivityon
LSM-VIAWorkstation
The required CentOS configuration differs depending on whether the monitor is plugged to the LSM-VIA
workstation using a Mini-DP cable or a KVM switch.
The file xorg.conf stored in the folder Computer/etc/X11 on the LSM-VIA workstation contains the
display configuration of CentOS.
By default, the configuration is set for Mini-DP display.
To set the configuration for use with a KVM switch, proceed as follows:
1. On the LSM-VIAworkstation, open a Linux command line by selecting Applications >
Favorites > Terminal.
2. Log in with administrator rights (sudo) on the workstation
3. Execute the script enable-kvm.sh stored in /opt/evs/scripts/
The configuration required for KVMconnection is applied.
If you need to restore the initial configuration for Mini-DP use, execute the script disable-
kvm.sh stored in the folder /opt/evs/scripts/.
