PRIMESTATION as LAN Console
On the basis of configuration entries for the LAN Console, xscon enables one or
more RM and PRIMEPOWER (MR) servers to be selected that are to be repre-
sented on the LAN Console. The names of the selectable systems are the
console names that were specified in the mklancon script when the configuration
entries were created.
The xscon user interface can also be chosen via the Solaris Common Desktop
Environment where there is a corresponding entry in the Application Manager.
The connection is established basically in the same way as for cu(1).
If the connection is set up via an RCA4 with an active access check, a user
name and password must be entered (see "Configuring the RCA" on page 47).
Press the {Ctrl}and "]" in the opened console window to access the command
interface (CLI - Command Line Interface) of the RCA4 (settings see "Config-
uring the RCA" on page 47). By now entering the command port history the
output can be exported.
A hardware break (break) can be sent to a PRIMEPOWER (MR) system via the
command send break. For this, the abort sequenze on the target system must be
set to „enabled". This corresponds to the default setting of the target system, but
can also be set with the help of the command
kbd -a enable
or by modification of the file etc/default/kbd.
After execution of the send break command you get to the OBP of the target
system on entering the command resume (see section below "RCA commands").
The connection is cleared down via the "~." string.

The RCA4 can be administered with xscon using the configuration entry
<RCA SystemName>adm (see "mkrca - Address the RCA" on page 51 and
"RCA commands").
