<div><p>How the user at the local console requests and releases control
of the server.</p>
<div class="section"> <p>When your local console with remote support does
not have iSeries control, you must request control at the local console to
work with a server. Requesting control at the local console forces control
back from a remote console if the remote console has control. After finishing
your work, you must release control to allow Operations Console to automatically
grant control to a requester.</p>

control back from the remote console, <a href="rzajrsendmesstorcs.htm#sendmesstorcs">Send
a message to the remote console</a> asking the user to <a href="rzajrreleaseatrcs.htm#releaseatrcs">release
