number of slots available and the number of heads (graphics modules) qualified

for each of the platforms. Other software may put additional restrictions on the

Other documentation shipped with your workstation or server may put specific

you should refer to the appropriate documentation set for limitations or

exclusions that are appropriate to your situation.

4.7.1 Matching Primary Screen with VGA Console

Screen 0 is always the VGA-enabled head and must be installed in the lowest

numbered slot of all installed graphics cards and must be placed on the PCI bus

containing the ISA bridge. If you wish to change a screen with any of the

console displays, you can alter the logical order for mapping of physical screens

to logical screens by making a copy of the file

DECW$PRIVATE_SERVER_SETUP.TEMPLATE and saving it to a new file

named DECW$PRIVATE_SERVER_SETUP.COM. You can then make changes

to the default settings by editing the newly created file. Refer to Section 4.6 for

details on changing the default settings.

Caution: Changing the default settings in the

DECW$PRIVATE_SERVER_SETUP.COM file to try matching a screen with a

console display can have unanticipated and adverse consequences. You should

attempt to perform this operation only if you fully understand all possible

consequences including the chance for loss of your primary screen.

4.8 Messages

Server messages are typically logged to the DECW$SERVER_0_ERROR.LOG file

located in the SYS$MANAGER directory. Be sure to check this file first for

informational messages related to any problems that are encountered during

installation or usage.
