Functions Of The Solaris-Cde Interface - Fujitsu Siemens Computers SX series User Manual

3 Functions of the Solaris-CDE interface

The business servers in the SX series are operated from the console of the server with the
Solaris user interface. This user interface is called Common Desktop Environment – abbre-
viated to CDE. Here, the interface provides not only functions for operating Solaris (or the
X2000 carrier system) but is also used for operating BS2000 instances. Details on
operation are given in the following section.
Here the console of the corresponding SX server can be either the system management
console (SMC) or, in the case of the SX series entry-level models, the local console of the
server or a LAN console. Since the commands for calling the functions are different for the
SMC/LAN console and local console, they are listed separately in the following sections.
In addition to the consoles, the CDE interface can also be operated remotely from
administration PCs (see chapter "Remote operation via PC" on page 133).
