Running the SSU

The SSU can be run either locally (directly on the server you are 
configuring) or remotely (on a workstation connected to the server you are 
configuring through the network).

Running the SSU.BAT file starts the SSU. If the server boots directly from 
the SSU media, the SSU.BAT file runs automatically. If the server boots 
from different media, the SSU can be started manually or by another 
application. When the utility starts in the local execution mode (the default 
mode), the SSU accepts input from the keyboard and/or mouse. The SSU 
provides a VGA-based GUI on the primary monitor.

The SSU runs from writable, nonwritable, removable, and nonremovable 
media. If the SSU is run from nonwritable media, user preference settings 
(like screen colors) cannot be saved.

The SSU supports the ROM-DOS V6.22 operating system. It can run on 
other ROM-DOS compatible operating systems, but they are not supported. 
The SSU will not operate from a “DOS window” running under an 
operating system like Windows.

To run the SSU remotely, you must invoke the SSU.BAT file with the /t 
switch and redirect the text-mode output via BIOS console redirect. See 
“Console Redirection Submenu” on page 94 for instructions on setting up 
the remote console.
