1.Disconnect the keyboard and mouse cables from the server.

2.Connect the keyboard and mouse cables to the color-coded T-shaped keyboard/mouse connector of the RILOE II keyboard/mouse adapter cable, as shown.

3.Connect the color-coded plugs of the keyboard mouse adapter cable to the keyboard and mouse connectors of the server.

4.Connect the black plug of the keyboard/mouse adapter cable to the RILOE II keyboard/mouse connector.

Headless server deployment

For headless server deployment, you do not have to connect the physical keyboard or mouse device to the server. However, to have remote keyboard and mouse capabilities, you must use the keyboard/mouse adapter cable provided with the RILOE II, the Remote Insight cable (16-pin), or Remote Insight cable (30- pin).

Monitor cable connection

To use a monitor with a server that has RILOE II installed, connect the monitor to the RILOE II video connector.

RILOE II incorporates the ATI RAGE XL video controller to ensure that a compatible controller is available for Remote Console operation. Adding RILOE II to a Windows® server replaces the embedded video controller of the server with the ATI RAGE XL video controller. Windows® loads a generic video driver to support the RILOE II video controller. The generic video driver works but lacks support for the ATI RAGE XL features.

For headless server deployment, do not connect a monitor to the server or to the RILOE II video connector.

To connect the monitor signal cable:

1.Disconnect the monitor signal cable from the server monitor connector.

2.Connect the monitor signal cable to the RILOE II video connector.

3.If you are installing RILOE II in a server running Microsoft® Windows NT® 4.0, install the latest ATI RAGE XL driver from the PSP for Microsoft® Windows NT® 4.0 located on the SmartStart CD.

For RILOE II to perform correctly, some servers require disabling the server onboard video. See the slot matrix ("Server PCI Slot and Cable Matrix" on page 174) for a list of servers that require disabling the
