Select Active Console Input Devices

Use this option to define the devices that are used to provide input to the server console.
This option displays the console devices on the server. This normally includes a standard
keyboard and mouse, and a serial console port for receiving output from a terminal emulation
package on a laptop. Several different terminal emulation protocols are supported.
■
When changing serial devices, changes must be made to output, input, and error menus for
proper operation.
NOTE: If you install a modem in the server, make sure you disable the modem serial console
port in both the Active Console Input and the Active Console Output device lists.
NOTE: Some operating systems support multiple input devices, such as a simultaneous serial
and keyboard input. See your OS documentation to determine how many consoles are supported
with the server.
