Chapter 3 Installing Graphic Console Redirection

Using Graphics Console Redirection

Initiating a graphic console redirection of an HP NetServer to a remote console

involves two steps. First, run pcANYWHERE32 at the server and set it into "Host

mode." Second, connect to the server using the "Call Online Service" from a

remote console running pcANYWHERE32.

At the HP NetServer

To initiate a graphics console redirection of the server console, do the following

at the server:

1. Have someone run pcANYWHERE32 from the pcANYWHERE32

program group in your Windows Program Manager.

2. Click the "Be a Host" button.

3. Double-click the "Modem" connection icon you modified for your HP

NetServer. This initializes the modem and prepares the server for takeover

by your remote console.

At the Remote Console

After you've set the server to be a host, do the following at the remote console:

1. Run pcANYWHERE32 from the pcANYWHERE32 program group in

your Windows Program Manager.

2. Click the "Remote Control" button. Then double-click the "Modem"

connection icon you configured for your HP NetServer. This initializes the

modem and dials the server's phone number.

3. Enter the password for the HP NetServer if you set one up when you

installed pcANYWHERE32 at the server.

After the NetServer accepts the password, you will see the graphics console of the

server displayed on your remote console. At this point, you can perform any tasks

you would have ordinarily done at the server console.
