4 Configuration Software and Utilities

•
DPC over LAN mode. Access the DPC console features using the
DPC console window menus and/or toolbar. Active when a
connection is established through the LAN.
•
Re-direct mode. Active when the server is running BIOS console
redirection. In this mode, the DPC console launches a separate
window. The window operates as an ANSI terminal and
communicates with the server through the port. Character-based
commands you type in the DPC Console go directly to the server,
and the DPC Console displays the text that you would normally see
on the server console.
To use this mode, you must configure the Console Redirection
option of BIOS Setup for Redirect mode. Enabling Console
Redirection requires that the Boot Time Diagnostics Screen be
Enabled in BIOS Setup. If the redirection window does not display
information, the Console Redirection is either incorrectly
configured or disabled, the EMP is disabled in BIOS Setup, or the
server is in protected mode. For DPC to function, the server must
NOT be in graphics mode.
•
If the DPC console fails to connect in EMP within 10 seconds and
the server can operate in Redirect mode, a prompt is displayed
with the option to switch to Re-direct mode.
•
Service Partition mode. Entered when the server reboots from the
service partition and the DPC Console has successfully connected to
the server through a modem. This mode allows running of DOS-
based programs that are stored on the service partition and
transferring of files.
Running the DPC Console
For more information about setting up and running the DPC Console,
see the document named “ASMe_Install_Guide.pdf.” This document is
in the ASMe\DOCS directory on the ASMe CD accompanying the Altos
R700 server board.
