The graphics terminal is available to System p® customers who want to use a graphical user interface (GUI) to their AIX® or Linux® servers.
The graphics terminal is primarily used for specific applications, such as animation programs and Product Lifecycle Management solutions such as CATIA. To use the graphics terminal, plug the graphics adapter into a PCI slot in the back of the server. You can connect a standard monitor, keyboard, and mouse to the adapter to use the terminal. You can use the graphics terminal with or without the Hardware Management Console (HMC).
