About This Document

This guide provides instructions for using the AB300X Server Console Solution. This solution uses an HP Thin Client as a terminal emulator for the HP 9000 and Integrity servers.

The HP 9000 and Integrity servers use a character cell (“dumb”) terminal over a serial RS232 connection to act as the console for the system. This approach is used because the console must communicate with server hardware over a simple link that does not require an active server OS. Traditional dumb terminals offer limited functionality and are increasingly difficult to supply.
