Workstation blade video subsystem 7

IMPORTANT: Workstation blades using Windows Vista® x32 and x64 with Westmere 2

processors display the incorrect processor speed and type in the Device Manager. To resolve this

issue, from the Control Panel, access either System Information or Welcome Center to see the

correct processor speed and type.

NOTE: HP ProLiant WS460c G6 Workstation Blade with WS460c Graphics Expansion Blade

supports remoting protocols such as Microsoft® Remote Desktop Protocol 7.1 or later.

Mode Description

User Mode

User Mode is the production mode. The ATI video controller generates the boot console

and the NVIDIA graphics adapter generates the Windows® console.

In User Mode, the Windows® console can only be viewed using remote protocols (for

example, using Microsoft® Remote Desktop Connection (RDC)). Because the ATI video

controller is inactive after the operating system starts, the Windows® desktop is not

visible on the Local I/O Connector or through iLO 2. The screen displays a message

stating that the blade is in User Mode.

Admin Mode

When Remote Console Mode is set to Admin Mode, the ATI video controller first

generates the boot console during POST, and then generates the Windows® desktop.

In this mode, the NVIDIA graphics adapter is not visible to any Windows® operating

systems and is not used.

In Admin Mode, the boot console and the Windows® desktop generated by the ATI

video controller can be viewed by using:

•

A monitor connected to the Local I/O Connector video signal

•

The iLO 2 Remote Console by pointing your browser to the iLO 2 IP address

•

RDC

Server Mode

When Remote Console Mode is set to Server Mode, the ATI video controller generates

the boot console during POST and then generates the Windows® desktop. In this

mode, the NVIDIA graphics adapter is not visible to any Windows® operating systems

and is not used.

In Server Mode, the boot console and the Windows® desktop generated by the ATI

video controller can be viewed by using:

•

A monitor connected to the Local I/O Connector video signal

•

The iLO 2 Remote Console by pointing your browser to the iLO 2 IP address

•

RDC

Setup Mode

Setup Mode is similar to Admin Mode. In Setup Mode, both the ATI video controller

and the NVIDIA graphics adapter are visible to a Windows® operating system.

Visibility of the NVIDIA graphics adapter enables the Windows® operating system to

install the NVIDIA graphics adapter driver.

In Setup Mode, the Windows® desktop can be viewed by using:

•

A monitor connected to the Local I/O Connector video signal

•

The iLO 2 Remote Console by pointing your browser to the iLO 2 IP address

•

RDC

Setting Remote Console mode

Remote Console Mode can be viewed or changed during POST, when the boot console is generated by the

ATI video controller in all Remote Console modes. To view or set Remote Console Mode during booting:

1. Using either the Local I/O Connector or the iLO 2 Ethernet port, view the boot console using iLO 2,

which provides direct control of the workstation blade power.

2. When prompted during booting, press the F9 key. The ROM-based Setup Utility appears.
