Getting Started 
Step 1: Configure KVM Target Servers 
KVM target servers are the computers that will be accessed and 
controlled via the KSX II. Before installing the KSX II, configure all KVM 
target servers to ensure optimum performance. This configuration 
applies only to KVM target servers, not to the client workstations (remote 
PCs) used to access the KSX II remotely. See Terminology for 
additional information. 
 
Desktop Background 
For optimal bandwidth efficiency and video performance, KVM target 
servers running graphical user interfaces such as Windows
®
, Linux
®
X-Windows, Solaris
, and KDE require configuration. The desktop 
background need not be completely solid but desktop backgrounds 
featuring photos or complex gradients might degrade performance. 
 
Mouse Settings 
The KSX II operates in several mouse modes: 
 
Absolute Mouse Mode
 (D2CIM-VUSB only) 
 
Intelligent Mouse Mode (do not use an animated mouse) 
 
Standard Mouse Mode 
Mouse parameters do not have to be altered for Absolute Mouse 
Synchronization but D2CIM-VUSB or D2CIM-DVUSB is required for this 
mode. For both the Standard and Intelligent mouse modes, mouse 
parameters must be set to specific values, which are described here. 
Mouse configurations will vary on different target operating systems. 
Consult your OS documentation for additional detail. 
Intelligent mouse mode generally works well on most Windows 
platforms. Intelligent mouse mode may produce unpredictable results 
when active desktop is set on the target. For additional information on 
Intelligent mouse mode settings, see 
Intelligent Mouse Mode
 (on page 
72). 
Servers with internal KVM switches inside the blade chassis typically do 
not support absolute mouse technology.
