Multiple Channel View

additional X server

An additional X server called the ‘head’ controls the other X servers. In
addition to the master X server, the head X server is run on the first
master workstation listed in the /

etc/X11/X0screens

file. This simply

adds one more layer to the X server hierarchy. The head X server controls
the master X servers running on each 2D node. The master X servers
control the slave X servers running on each 3D slave node. Notice in the
following 8-pipe, 2 channel sample X0screens file, that each hp
visualization center sv6 cluster has an ID associated with its 2D master
node. A row, column order for the displays is also specified. Position the
displays left to right top to bottom to match the row, column order you
specify in this file.
