Target Group - Fujitsu Siemens Computers PRIMESTATION Series Manual

Target group

an SMC. The SCS (System Console Software) software is used as well as the
Console Connection Units (CCU) as V.24/Ethernet converters in the system
cabinets.
If you have a GP7000 F midrange (M200/M400/M600) machine, all of the
PRIMEPOWER (MR) information applies to your machine also, because the
name GP7000F has been changed to PRIMEPOWER.
The midrange models referred to from both system families can be managed in
mixed mode from a PRIMESTATION with the same user interface. The
PRIMESTATION can be operated in parallel as both a LAN console and SMC
assuming the hardware and software configuration supports this.
It is not only possible to use the PRIMESTATION in its console function but also
for (network-based) system administration, configuration, diagnostics and
software installation and distribution for one or more RM or PRIMEPOWER
(MR) servers. Furthermore, multiple clustered RM or PRIMEPOWER (MR)
servers can be configured, administered and monitored from one console.
Scope of delivery
The PRIMESTATION product consists of a SPARC-based processor with the
Solaris Version 8 operating system, the Solaris Media Kit.
LAN console software (see the chapter "PRIMESTATION as LAN Console") or
system console software (see the chapter "PRIMESTATION as SMC") should
be ordered separately.
I
The RCA and PRIMESTATION must be ordered separately.
