CHAPTER 2 Basic Operations

The PRIMEQUEST-series machine provides two user interfaces for its server management board, referred to as the management board (MMB), containing a dedicated processor:

zThe Web user interface (Web-UI) enables operation and management by the user through a Web browser running on a PC or workstation (referred to collectively as a PC, in this document).

zThe command line interface (CLI) enables operation by the user through a serial port or remote PC connection via a management LAN.

This chapter describes common Web-UI window operations and basic operations with the MMB for management and operation of the PRIMEQUEST-series machine. Basic operations from the CLI are described in the chapter on CLI operations in each part of this manual.

Malfunction

The MMB Web-UI supports the Web browsers listed below. Note that other browsers may not display Web-UI windows correctly.

zMicrosoftInternet Explorer (IE) v5.5 (SP2) and later

zNetscape v7.02 and later

2.1Web-UI Windows

The user can select the desired font size in these windows. The system status is indicated by text. It is also indicated by colors so that the user can easily recognize the current status. Three color patterns classify the status as normal, warning, or error:

zNormal status

The window background color remains the same.

zWarning status

Yellow indicates the warning status.

For example, if a unit is in the warning status, the table frame that displays the status has a yellow background.
