The AUTOACT keyword for the system console specifies a console group. The consoles in this group can "replace" the system console. The AUTOACT support is especially useful if you have no MCS consoles (for example, all of them are SMCS consoles). With this support, the system console can be used during NIP, activated automatically at the end of NIP, and deactivated when an SMCS console activates. See Using the AUTOACT console group for more information.
