Understanding How Oracle Solaris Manages Multiple Display Devices on the SPARC M7 Servers

The SPARC M7 servers have redundant SPs. To support the replacement of SPs while the host is running, new support was introduced for individual X sessions to be started and stopped. Starting and stopping of an individual X session is automatically handled when enabling an SP after its addition or preparing an SP for removal. Under normal conditions, you should not have to administer X sessions on these servers.


Note -  SPARC M8 servers do not support these tasks because only VNC is supported for video redirection.

If for some reason, the automated nature of the X sessions is not working, you can manually configure them. These topics describe how to configure dynamic X sessions.
