Changing the console from a twinaxial console to an Operations Console local console on a network (LAN) in a nonpartitioned system
To change from a twinaxial console to an Operations Console local console on a network (LAN), you must use the existing console to complete these steps on the system.
The system is now configured for use by your intended console type. You must do an initial program load (IPL) of the system so that it can use the new console.
If you do not plan to use the twinaxial device as a backup console do not remove it or its adapter at this time. You may need it to debug a problem.
The system value QAUTOCFG must be set to on. Use one of the following to verify or set this system value:
- Use the WRKSYSVAL QAUTOCFG command.
- During a manual IPL, in the IPL Options window, select Y for Set major system options. Then, for Enable automatic configuration, select Y.
