Remote Diagnostic Tests: These tests consist of Modular Test Architecture (MTA) diagnostic tests that
when run allow you to quickly assess a server’s hardware status, view test logs, and determine the server’s
current configuration. You control the tests are controlled through a text-based console redirected to the
client workstation from DPC.
Refer to “Direct Platform Control” and “Remote Diagnostic Tests” for summary information. You can click
the Help button in the DPC Console for detailed information.
NOTE
To remotely configure an Itanium™ - based server, use the Server Management
Configuration Utility (SM Config Utility). For an overview of this utility, refer to “Server
Management Configuration (SM Config) Utility” on page 9.
LAN-Alert Viewer and Manager: The LAN-Alert Manager sends and receives alerts over a LAN
connection as opposed to pages that are sent over a serial connection. The manager running on a server
executes as a service and sends out alerts packaged as SNMP traps using a UDP/IP protocol. The manager
running on a client decodes LAN alerts received from a managed server. The LAN-Alert Viewer is the user
interface running on a client that lets you monitor these types of alerts.
NOTE
LAN-Alert Viewer and Manager is currently not supported. Please refer to the HP web
site at
or the latest release.
LAN-Alert is a Java-based component that can run on Windows NT or Windows 2000 systems. LAN-Alert
cannot run locally on an Itanium-based platform. Refer to the help system that is part of LAN-Alert for more
information.
