Identifying the Server

Choose the Server Identification command in the Configuration Menu to display the
Server window in which you provide a server identifier name and identifier code.

You can use the window to enter a server name and number that uniquely identifies
the server to an administrator at the remote console. (For consistency, an administrator
may want to use the NOS name of the server.) The identifier code you configure here
accompanies the event code in any numeric page sent to an administrator. Likewise,
the server name and ID is sent in all alphanumeric pager messages.

NOTE

Some numeric pagers do not accept messages with leading zeros. To get

around this, you must use a three-digit server ID.

Selecting Keyboard Layouts

If you are using a keyboard other than a standard U.S. keyboard on the host server, you
can use the Configuration Utility to select a keyboard layout that matches the keyboard
driver being used by the server's operating system. This allows you to use HP Remote
Assistant's Remote Console and Graceful Shutdown features with an international
keyboard without having to reconfigure the server keyboard driver. HP Remote
Assistant provides support for keyboards used in the following countries:

United States (default)

France

Italy

Germany

Spain

United Kingdom

Use the Server Keyboard command in the Configuration Menu to specify an alternate
keyboard layout. (Appendix I provides graphics of the supported keyboard layouts.)
