<div><p>Instructions for connecting a local console on a network to an
|
||
|
|
iSeries server. </p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="p">Connecting a local console on a network (LAN) to a server allows you
|
||
|
|
to have an active console and a functional remote control panel (if configured).
|
||
|
|
An active console is a command interface to an iSeries server (5250 emulation)
|
||
|
|
that is currently interacting with the server. A functional remote control
|
||
|
|
panel allows you to perform most control panel functions (depending on the
|
||
|
|
partition connected to) as if you were at the server.</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"> <p>If you have problems when performing some of these steps, see <a href="rzajrtroublenetwork.htm#troublenetwork">Network connection errors</a> in
|
||
|
|
the troubleshooting topic for possible solutions.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Perform these following
|
||
|
|
steps to connect a local console on a network to a server:</p>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<ol><li class="stepexpand"><span>Open Operations Console to start the connection:</span><ol type="a"><li><span>Click <span class="uicontrol">Start</span> and select <span class="uicontrol">Programs</span>.</span></li>
|
||
|
|
<li><span>Select <span class="uicontrol">IBM iSeries Access for Windows</span>.</span></li>
|
||
|
|
<li><span>Click <span class="uicontrol">Operations Console</span>.</span></li>
|
||
|
|
</ol>
|
||
|
|
By default, Operations Console does not automatically attempt to connect
|
||
|
|
a local console on a network to an iSeries server. If you selected <span class="uicontrol">Start
|
||
|
|
connection when Operations Console starts</span> in Properties, the local
|
||
|
|
console connects to the iSeries server automatically. The connection status
|
||
|
|
shows <span class="uicontrol">Connecting</span> first, before changing
|
||
|
|
to <span class="uicontrol">Connecting Console</span>.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span>If you did not select <span class="uicontrol">Start connection when Operations
|
||
|
|
Console starts</span> in Properties, you need to connect to the server
|
||
|
|
as follows:</span><ol type="a"><li><span>Select the configuration name.</span></li>
|
||
|
|
<li><span>From the <span class="uicontrol">Connection</span> menu, click <span class="uicontrol">Connect</span>.</span></li>
|
||
|
|
</ol>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span>In the LAN Service Device Sign-on window, sign on using the access
|
||
|
|
password that allows the server to access your service device information.
|
||
|
|
You also have to provide your assigned service tools user ID and password.</span> <p>Operations Console needs a valid access password, service tools user
|
||
|
|
ID, and service tools password to authorize the connection between the local
|
||
|
|
console and server. For more information, see <a href="../rzamh/rzamh1.htm">Service Tools</a>. For a visual of this concept, see <a href="rzajrsecurity.htm#security">Secure your Operations Console configuration</a>.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>After
|
||
|
|
you sign on successfully, the connection status shows <span class="uicontrol">Connected</span>.</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Confirm that the console and remote control panel, if configured,
|
||
|
|
appears.</span></li>
|
||
