Teststation Functionality - HP 9000 V-Class Operator's Manual

Teststation functionality

Several functions of the teststation include:
• Running diagnostics
• Updating of Utility Board firmware
• Logging of environmental and system level events
• Configuration of hardware and boot parameters
• Booting the Operating System
The teststation is connected directly to the V-Class server via a
dedicated LAN connection as well as a special RS-232 serial
connection. Together the LAN and the serial connection provide
control, status, and HPMC error information to the teststation where
operators and CEs may view status.
