Loading SALIPL from Tape

If SALIPL resides on a tape:

  1. Ask the operator to mount the tape on a compatible tape drive and attach the tape drive to your virtual machine as virtual device number 181.
  2. Wait for CP to send you a message that the tape drive has been attached.
  3. Make sure your virtual machine is in ESA mode. Enter:
    set machine esa
  4. Make sure your virtual console is in 3270 mode. Enter:
    terminal conmode 3270
  5. Load the SALIPL program into your virtual machine storage. Enter:
    ipl 181
    or
    ipl 181 loadparm vcon
    where vcon is the virtual device number of your console.

You are now ready to start running the program. See Filling in the SALIPL Menu Screen.
