NOTE
A note provides important information about the operation
of an ftServer system.
Typographical Conventions
The following typographical conventions are used in this document:
The bold font emphasizes words in text or, in Microsoft Windows procedures,
indicates text that you type, the name of a screen object, or the name of a
programming element. For example:
Before handling or replacing system components, make sure that you are
properly grounded by using a grounded wrist strap.
In the System Properties dialog box, click the Hardware tab.
Call the RegisterDeviceNotification function.
The italic font introduces new terms and indicates programming and command-line
arguments that the user supplies. For example:
Many hardware components are customer-replaceable units (CRUs), which
can be replaced on-site by system administrators with minimal training or tools.
copy filename1 filename2
Pass a pointer for the NotificationFilter parameter
The monospace font represents text that would appear on your display screen
when working in a text-based console. The monospace bold font represents text
you must type in examples that contain both user input and system output. The
monospace italic font represents terms in command lines that are to be replaced
by literal values. For example:
To display the state of a CPU enclosure on a Linux or VMware ESX™ system,
type a command in the following format:
/opt/ft/bin/ftsmaint ls n
If you type /opt/ft/bin/ftsmaint ls 0 at the prompt, the following
output appears:
H/W Path : 0
Description : CPU Node Assembly
.
The percent sign (%), dollar sign ($), and number sign (#) are default prompt signs
that have a specific meaning at a Linux or VMware ESX command prompt.
