Accessing the System Console Through a Graphics
Monitor
The Sun Netra T5440 server is shipped without a mouse, keyboard, monitor, or
frame buffer for the display of bitmapped graphics. To install a graphics monitor on
the server, you must install a graphics accelerator card into a PCI slot, and attach a
monitor, mouse, and keyboard to the appropriate front or rear USB ports.
After starting the system, you might need to install the correct software driver for
the PCI card you have installed. For detailed hardware instructions, see
the System Console Through a Local Graphics Monitor" on page
Note – POST diagnostics cannot display status and error messages to a local
graphics monitor.
