IMPORTANT:
graphics card to enable VGA grpahics support. See
(page 114).
The graphics capability of your HP 9000 rp4410 or rp4440 server is not supported. The 15 pin
VGA port on the back of your HP server is covered and does not function. DO NOT attempt to
attach a monitor to this port. Because the graphics chip associated with this port is onboard the
iLO MP card and cannot be turned off, you get an UNCLAIMED UNKNOWN message if you run
the ioscan command. This is normal and can be ignored.
Following is a screen shot of the ioscan screen:

Enabling VGA Graphics Capability

To enable graphics capability on your HP 9000 rp4410 or rp4440 server you must install the
supported A6150B graphics PCI card kit in one of the open PCI slots.

Installing Your A6150B Graphics Card

If you ordered the A6150B graphics card kit for installation into a HP 9000 rp4410 or rp4440
server, install the graphics card to activate graphics capability. Do not install the USB card; it is
not supported. USB capability is already incorporated into your rp4410 or rp4440 server, and
the USB ports are located on the rear panel.
To install the A6150 graphics card, see
