Figure 13 Ignite-UX server configuration tabs

The following options are available:

•Default Configuration – Click the button next to Default Configuration to select from the list of available configurations. The selected configuration is the default that will be used when installing clients. You can override this default setting on a per-client basis with Ignite-UX.

•Default Printer – Click the button next to Default Printer, then select one of the available (configured) printers. This is the printer used for printing a manifest or installation history. The printer IP address is verified by Ignite-UX before a job is sent.

•Client Timeout(minutes) – Click the button next to Client Timeout (minutes):, then select the number of minutes or off. Status information is written into the client’s install.log file during the installation, and this log is actively monitored by Ignite-UX on the server. Setting this value configures Ignite-UX to display a warning message if the install.log file has not been updated in the selected number of minutes. HP recommends you use the default value.

Setting Client Timeout to off disables this notification and does not affect the outcome of the installation.

•Run client installation UI on – Use the Run client installation UI on: menu to designate where you want to run the client UI for this installation. If you have an Ignite-UX server configured, you can run the client installation interface from the target system using a terminal user interface (TUI), or from the server using whatever UI is set up there (the Ignite-UX GUI or TUI). If the client installation is to be noninteractive (no user intervention), select none.

The default is for the UI to be displayed on the Ignite-UX server.

•Use ssh to gather client data – For all clients, ssh will be used instead of remsh, rlogin, and rcp.
