Password secured access to the console functionality
Support of generic terminals (i.e. VT100 compatible).
Power supply control and monitoring from the console. It will be
possible to get power supply status and to switch power on/off from
the console.
Console over the LAN. This means that a PC can become the system
console if properly connected on the customer LAN. This feature
becomes especially important because of the remote power
management capability. The LAN will be implemented on a separate
port, distinct from the system LAN, and provide TCP/IP and Telnet
access.
There is one MP per Superdome cabinet, thus there are two (2) for
Superdome 64-processor. But one, and only one, can be active at a
time. There is no redundancy or failover feature.

For Windows Server 2008 customers desiring uninterrupted visibility to the Superdome Windows partition,
it is recommended that customers purchase an IP console solution separately to view the partition while
the OS is rebooting (in addition to normal Windows desktop if desired). Windows Terminal Services,
which is a standard feature in Windows Server 2008, should be the recommended method to provide
remote access, but is lacking in displaying VGA output during reboot.
For customers who mandate VGA access during reboot, the IP console switch (AF6002), used in
conjunction with a VGA/USB card in the partition (A6869B) is the solution. These IP console solutions are
available "off the shelf" with resellers or the ProLiant supply chain.
The features of this switch are as follows:
Provides keyboard, video and mouse (KVM) connections to 16 direct attached Windows partitions
(or servers) - expandable to 128.
Allows access to partitions (or servers) from a remote centralized console.
1 for local KVM
3 concurrent remote users (secure SSL data transfer across network)
Single screen switch management with the IP Console Viewer Software:
Authentication
Administration
Client Software
If the full graphical console access is needed, the following must be ordered with the Integrity Superdome
purchase (it will not be integrated in the factory, but will ship with the system):
