Learn how to set up your IBM® i logical partition so
that it can communicate with the 5250 console on a Hardware Management Console (HMC).
To connect to a 5250 console using the HMC, you must ensure that
the IBM i logical
partition profile properties are set up properly. To set up the properties
on an IBM i logical
partition so that you can connect to a 5250 console, do the following:
- In the navigation area, expand Systems Management.
- Expand Servers and select the server
that contains the IBM i logical
partition that you want to work with.
- In the contents pane, select the logical partition you
want to work with.
- Select .
- Select the profile you want to work with, and select .
- Click Tagged I/O.
- Verify that Hardware Management Console appears
under the Console menu, and click OK.
- Click Close.
The logical partition is now ready for a 5250 console
session through the HMC.
Tagging the I/O adapter (IOA) in the partition profile automatically
sets the console type during the next activation after the partition
profile is updated. An initial program load (IPL) does
not recognize the changed partition profile.
