Sun servers may use keyboard mappings for
Issues may arise when you use the US keyboard country code with a keyboard of another country. For example, the Z key on a US keyboard is in the same location as the Y key on a German keyboard. Sun servers will interpret pressing the Y key on a German keyboard as pressing the Z key when the US keyboard country code is used.
The Keyboard dialog box enables you to send a different keyboard country code than the default US setting. The specified country code is sent to all target devices attached to the DSR switches when they are powered up or rebooted, and the new code is stored in the IQ module.
NOTE: If an IQ module is moved to a different target device, the keyboard country code will need to be reset.
See Sun Advanced Key Emulation on page 117 for information on emulating certain Sun keys using a PS/2 keyboard and special considerations for Japanese and Korean Sun USB keyboards.
NOTE: Only local users can view or change keyboard country code settings.
To set the keyboard country code for Sun servers:
1.If the OSCAR interface is not open, press Print Screen to open the Main dialog box.
2.Click Setup - Keyboard to open the Keyboard dialog box shown in Figure 3.10.

3.Select a country code and click OK to save your settings.
4.Reboot the Sun servers. After rebooting, each Sun server will request the country code setting stored in the IQ module.
