Most of the more advanced ANSI terminal emulation packages allow adjustment of the number of displayed rows. If this is the case, it is recommended that both the remote terminal and the terminal size settings be adjusted to accommodate the maximum number of lines which will usually be displayed on the server console. For instance, if the managed server operating system is Windows NT, the recommended terminal size is 50 lines, since Windows NT uses this video mode during operation system load and during “blue screen” trap conditions. If both the terminal emulation application and IRC are configured for more lines than are currently being displayed on the managed server, IRC adjusts the output so it is correctly displayed on the Management Console. This allows you to use one terminal size setting for all display modes.
If you are using a terminal emulation package that supports 25 lines, make sure that the terminal application is correctly configured for 25 lines. If the terminal emulation package does not support 25 lines (like HyperTerminal), IRC must be configured to match this limitation. In either case, the terminal size setting in IRC and the terminal emulation application must match for correct display. IRC saves this setting in your user profile, so changes to the terminal size are retained between sessions. If the terminal size requires adjustment, select the “Change Terminal Size” option from the Remote Console submenu. Adjust the terminal size to either 24, 25, 43, or 50 lines.
