Manual Conventions

The names of menus, menu options, and window controls are in bold type.
Also, text that you type is a different font. For example:
Type boot and press the Return key.

Text that is placed within the <> symbol should be replaced (including <>)
with the appropriate text. For example:

ipaddr

Substitute the MCC system’s IP address.

hostname Substitute the MCC system’s host name.

Starting the MCC

To start the MCC:

Note: If starting a “software only” MCC, only step 5 is

applicable.

1. Power on the MCC server and monitor, and let it boot up.

Wait for the “login” prompt. When this prompt appears,
the MCC is fully started and the MCC core programs are
executing. The MCC programs automatically start when
the system boots. Even if a user is not logged, the
interfaces are active, auto-starting scripts are launched
from the #startup script, and scheduled scripts are
executing. Logging in enables the display of, and
interaction with the MCC.

2. Power on the MCC user console (the ThinClient / workstation /

X terminal). Ensure the monitor’s power is also on.

3. Login at the X terminal or Linux Console to use the MCC.

Restarting the MCC Software

For any changes to the configuration take effect, the MCC software must
be shutdown and restarted.
To “cycle” all of the MCC software, including the core programs:

1.

All users should logout except for one with shutdown
authority (an administrator).

2.

Shutdown the MCC software by selecting the
Administration menu Shutdown option on the user display.
