Resequence SPCN addressing

Resequence the system power control network (SPCN) addressing, before generating any printouts. This ensures that when the IBM® service representative performs the SPCN address resequencing after the expansion unit conversion, minimal sequencing changes occur.

To resequence the SPCN addressing, complete the following steps:
  1. At an i5/OS™ command line, enter STRSST to start system service tools (SST) on the primary partition and sign on to SST.
    Note: To use system service tools, you need a valid service tools user ID.
  2. From the SST main menu, select option 5 (Work with system partitions), and press Enter. The Work with System Partitions display appears.
  3. Select option 2 (Work with partition status). The Work with Partition Status display appears.
  4. Type 10 next to the Primary Partition (0) and press Enter to put the partition in manual mode.
  5. From the Work with Partition Status display, type 33 next to the primary partition (0) and press Enter to resequence the SPCN addressing. Correct completion of the operation results in the status message Reorder SPCN addressing was successful.
