*indicates a currently selected device.

This menu is identical to Console Error Devices. The HP Integrity rx4640 does not support different configurations for Output and Error console. For correct operation:

•When changes are made to either Output or Error console menus, the identical change must be made in both menus.

•When changing serial devices, changes must be made to Output, Input, and Error menus for proper operation.

Table C-4	Console Output Devices
To select:		Choose:
Serial A/Serial 1		Acpi(PNP0501,0)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(Vt100+)
iLO MP Serial Console		Acpi(HWP0002,700)/Pci(11)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(Vt100+)
iLO MP VGA Port		Acpi(HWP0002,700)/Pci(20)

•Each option is identified with an EFI device path. Not all options will be available, depending on the configuration of the server and the options purchased. Device paths may differ slightly on different product models.

•On both serial device examples, UART 9600 indicates the current baud rate of the serial device (can be changed with the EFI shell baud command), VenMsg Vt100+ is the current emulation type (several different terminal emulation protocols are supported, see list above).

•Only one terminal emulation type (PcAnsi, Vt100, etc.) can be selected for each serial console, but multiple serial consoles can be selected at a time.

Console Configuration

Use this option to define the devices that display output from the system console. This list normally includes the VGA monitor and a serial port for directing output to a terminal emulation package.

NOTE	If you install a modem in your server, make sure you disable the modem serial port in both the
	Active Console Input and Active Console Output device lists.
NOTE	Some operating systems support multiple consoles, such as a simultaneous serial and VGA
	output. See your OS documentation to determine how many consoles are supported with your
	server. Multiple consoles are not supported for HP-UX or Windows (use the Smart Setup CD to
	switch between COM A and the iLO MP on Windows systems).
