Sun Solaris Video Settings

All target servers must be configured to one of the display resolutions
supported by the Dominion KX (see Server Video Resolution (on page
11)). The most popular supported resolutions for Sun machines are:

• 1024 x 768 @ 60 Hz
• 1024 x 768 @ 70 Hz
• 1024 x 768 @ 75 Hz
• 1024 x 768 @ 85 Hz
• 1152 x 900 @ 66 Hz
• 1152 x 900 @ 76 Hz
• 1280 x 1024 @ 60 Hz

Further, target servers running the Solaris operating system must output
VGA video (H-and-V sync, not composite sync).

To change your Sun video card output from composite

sync to the non-default VGA output:

1. Issue the Stop+A command to drop to bootprom mode.

2. Next, issue the command setenv output-device

screen:r1024x768x70

to change the output resolution.

3. Issue the “boot” command to reboot the server.

You may also contact your Raritan representative to purchase a video
output adapter. 13W3 Suns with composite sync output require an
APSSUN II Guardian converter for use with the Dominion KX. HD15
Suns with composite sync output require the 1396C converter to convert
from HD15 to 13W3 and an APSSUN II Guardian converter to support
composite sync. HD15 Suns with separate sync output require an
APKMSUN Guardian converter for use with the Dominion KX.

Note: Some of the standard SUN background screens may not center
precisely on certain SUN servers, specifically, those with dark borders.
Use another background or place a light colored icon in the upper left
hand corner.
