View active configuration

HCD allows you to view the name and status of the IODF that has been used for IPL or for last dynamic activation. The operating system configuration and EDT identifier and, if applicable, the configuration token, which is currently active in the HSA (hardware system area), are shown. Use the View active configuration function for an overview of the actual status for dynamic activation, indicating whether hardware and software changes are allowed.

1. On the Primary Task Selection panel, select Activate or process configuration data and then View active configuration.

   The View Active Configuration window with sample data is shown below:
