4.7.1
Matching Primary Screen with VGA Console
Screen 0 is always the VGA-enabled head and must be installed in the lowest
numbered slot of installed graphics cards. If you wish to change a screen with
any of the console displays, you can alter the logical order for mapping of
physical screens to logical screens by making a copy of the file
DECW$PRIVATE_SERVER_SETUP.TEMPLATE and saving it to a new file
named DECW$PRIVATE_SERVER_SETUP.COM. You can then make changes
to the default settings by editing the newly created file. Refer to Section 4.6 for
details on changing the default settings.
Caution: Changing the default settings in the
DECW$PRIVATE_SERVER_SETUP.COM file to try matching a screen with a
console display can have unanticipated and adverse consequences. You should
attempt to perform this operation only if you fully understand all possible
consequences including the chance for loss of your primary screen.

Messages
Server messages are typically logged to the DECW$SERVER_0_ERROR.LOG file
located in the SYS$MANAGER directory. Be sure to check this file first for
informational messages related to any problems that are encountered during
installation or usage.

POLYCENTER Software Installation
At the end of the OpenVMS POLYCENTER Software Installation procedure, a
message is displayed that recommends a reboot of the system. At the conclusion
of the installation, the POLYCENTER Software Installation utility does not
prompt for or enforce a reboot of the system for the new software image to
become effective immediately. The ELSA GLoria Synergy graphics controller
two-dimensional (2D) support software becomes active only after the operating
system has been rebooted.
If you are installing the software in a clustered environment and it is not
convenient to perform a reboot immediately following installation, then you may
perform a rolling reboot for the new image to take effect across all systems.
