NEC EXPRESSBUILDER for DOS-based with Remote Console

This subsection describes the procedures for using NEC EXPRESSBUILDER for DOS-based with
remote console.
NEC EXPRESSBUILDER contains the remote console feature that allows the system administrator
to set up the server from the management workstation (management PC) via the network or the
server's COM2 (serial) port.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use this feature on any other computer than the server, or
on any other server obtained without the NEC
EXPRESSBUILDER. Doing so may cause a failure of the server.
When a keyboard is connected to the server, the remote console
feature is disabled. The NEC EXPRESSBUILDER determines that
the server has a console. (Nothing is displayed on the management
PC.)
Starting
The following two methods are available to start the server.
Running NEC EXPRESSBUILDER from the management PC via LAN
Running NEC EXPRESSBUILDER from the management PC via direct connection
(COM2)
For the procedure for starting NEC EXPRESSBUILDER for DOS-based with Remote Console,
refer to Chapter 6 [MWA] – [Remote Management Configuration for the Server without console].
IMPORTANT: Do not change the boot device order in BOOT menu
in BIOS SETUP. NEC EXPRESSBUILDER cannot be used if the
CD-ROM drive is not the first device to launch the system.
To use this feature, you need 3.5-inch floppy disk. Please prepare the
floppy disk.
