OptionDescription
physical_serial_lineMapping to host "\\.\COM<n>" ("COM<n>:") physical serial line.
virtual_serial_line

Mapping to an IP port of CHARON host.
Using this mapping it is possible to connect to the CHARON VM console and disconnect from it at any time without usage of CHARON Virtual Machines Manager "Show Console" option. It is also possible to start up some chosen application to connect to the CHARON console IP port.

ParameterDescription
portSpecifies a unique IP port on the host to which the CHARON VM console will be mapped.
applicationA string specifying a name of an application to be started together with CHARON to provide emulation of HP Alpha console (terminal emulator). It is assumed that this application has already been configured to use the IP port specified by the corresponding "port" parameter

Example:

load virtual_serial_line/chserial OPA0 port=10003 application="putty.exe -load OPA0"

In the example above, the CHARON VM uses the IP port "10003" for the HP Alpha console and starts the "Putty" terminal emulator (included in the CHARON installation kit) with the "OPA0" saved session directing it to connect to the IP port "10003". If the terminal emulator is closed, it is always possible to reopen it with the "Show Console" feature from the CHARON Virtual Machines Manager.

...

The default setting is:

load virtual_serial_line/chserial OPA0 port=10003 application="putty.exe -load OPA0"

KGPSA-CA mapping to a storage controller using its "presentation" mode

...

Type of mappingDescription
storage_controller_path_id = <Storage controller path ID>

"Storage controller path ID" is a storage (for example SAN) controller path ID.

This ID can be obtained from the special utility "Device check tool" (accessible in the "Host Information and Utilities" section of the CHARON Virtual Machines Manager). Once specified, all the disks attached to the storage are automatically mapped as disk units to the CHARON VM.
