Understanding your NetV ista Thin Client Express The IBM NetV ista N2800e Thin Client Expr ess offers a fast and simple way to access applications on the following platforms: v W indows NT ® Server 4.0 v W indows NT Server 4.0, T erminal Server Edition (TSE) v W indows NT W orkstation 4.
2.
Learning about the hardware This section provides detailed har dware information about the N2800e Thin Client Express — Har dware T ype 8364 (Model Cxx), hereafter referr ed to as N2800e Thin Client Express.
Communication hardware Y our N2800e Thin Client Expr ess includes an integrated Ethernet connection. For a 10 Megabit (Mb) line speed operation, you need a category 3 or higher Unshielded T wisted Pair (UTP) type of cable. For a 100 Mb line speed operation, you need a category 5 UTP type of cable.
expand the RAM of the N2800e by installing 32, 64, or 128 MB DIMMs. “ Appendix B. Hardware maintenance pr ocedures ” on page 45 provides information on how to exchange memory . Refer to “ Appendix A. Replacing hardwar e parts ” on page 41 for detailed memory specifications and or derable N2800e Thin Client Express parts.
6.
Setting up the hardware Unpacking your hardware Unpack your hardwar e. Contact your reseller , or IBM, if you do not have these standard parts: 1 Thin client logic unit 2 Base 3 Mous.
Installing the support base Slide the base B onto the notched bottom of the thin client A until it latches securely . Connecting your hardware Read “ Safety notices ” on page v before continuing.
Startup sequence This is a typical startup sequence of events for the NetV ista Thin Client Expr ess. If any of these events do not occur , see “ Resolving hardwar e problems ” on page 31.
10.
Configuring the N2800e Thin Client Express Before you can use the N2800e Thin Client Expr ess (also referr ed to as workstation ) to access server applications, you need to configure your workstation.
The menu number A makes it easy to navigate through the Setup Utility . Menu numbers that begin with 2 are unique to the initial Setup Utility . The menu title B tells you which menu you are using. Use the arrow keys to select an option fr om the list of available options C .
The Configuration T ool pr ovides three W orkstation Mode user interfaces: 1. A single application that starts automatically when you power on the workstation. This application fills the entire display scr een. 2. One or more applications that start automatically when you power on the workstation.
14.
Installing the Thin Client Service Utility and the Operations Utilities The Thin Client Express Service and Thin Client Manager Operations Utilities ar e management utilities that run on the following workstations or server platforms: v W indows NT Server 4.
Only the Operations Utility methods of updating in T able 1 on page 15 allow you to update multiple workstations at a time. The other methods of flash recovery in T able 1 on page 15 allow you to perform flash recovery to one workstation at a time.
6. Click download NetV ista Thin Client Express Service and Operations Utilities . 7. From the Downloads box, click the item that you want to download.
18.
Managing your Thin Client Express remotely Y ou can use the IBM NetV ista Thin Client Manager Operations Utility to remotely manage your N2800e Thin Client Express. Y ou can use the Thin Client Manager Operations Utility to manage both individual workstations, and workstation groups.
20.
PPP dialer for Thin Client Express workstations Y ou can configur e your Thin Client Express (hereafter r eferred to as workstation ) for Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) dial access. Y ou can utilize this option if your workstation uses a modem to connect to a network.
b. Choose a display resolution setting and a display fr equency setting. c. Configure the workstation Internet Pr otocol (IP) settings: 1) From the CompactFlash Boot - Configure IP settings menu, disable Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). 2) V erify that all IP values ar e 0.
7. T ype a userid and password in the appr opriate fields. If you do not type a userid and password, the dialer pr ompts you for a userid and password each time that you connect to the network. Once you have completed the initial modem setting configurations for PPP dialer access, you can start the PPP dialer .
b. Hold the keys down for several seconds until the Configuration T ool starts. Note: If you are unable to enter the Configuration T ool, the workstation may not have access to the Configuration T ool.
Altering the flash image of a workstation There ar e two methods that you can use to alter the flash image of a workstation: v “ Performing a software update on a workstation ” on page 25. v “ Recovering the flash image of a workstation ” on page 26.
http://www.ibm.com/nc/pubs 2. If you have installed the Service Utility on a network server , ensure that the Service Utility services are r unning. If you have not installed the Service Utility on a network server , you can use another workstation as your flash update source.
Y ou need to specify the flash file that you want to use in the pr ocess, regardless of the method that you choose. See “ Appendix E. Choosing a flash file ” on page 55 for more information.
Do not exit the Configuration T ool at this time, as you will need to perform the procedur e, “ Disabling peer flash recovery on a workstation ” on page 29 from this menu later . 7. Continue with the procedur e, “ Recovering the image on the peer-booted workstation ” .
Disabling peer flash recovery on a workstation The third step of peer flash r ecovery is to disable peer flash recovery on a workstation. Perform the following procedur e from the workstation that you enabled to provide peer flash r ecovery: 1. From the Remote Management / Software Update menu, click Enable / Disable Peer Software Recovery .
13. Under Boot file server directory and file name , specify this directory and file name as the First option: /NS/flashbase/x86/kernel.2200 14. Under Boot file server protocol , set NFS to First . 15. Press F3 to save your settings and r eturn to the Advanced Configuration menu.
Resolving hardware problems This section provides information on verifying and r esolving hardwar e problems. If you cannot identify a hardwar e problem, you can r equest technical service and support by contacting IBM. Y ou need to provide the machine type, model, and serial number of your NetV ista thin client.
