<h1 class="topictitle1">Scenario: Consoles for multiple servers or partitions</h1>
<div><p>A scenario that discusses a situation in which you want to manage
multiple servers or partitions.</p>
<div class="section"><p>Your company owns an iSeries™ server and you want to use the
PC to manage your server. You need to manage multiple iSeries or partitioned servers from one
console. You have a secured network that you can configure your console on.<br /><img src="rzajr505.gif" alt="Local console on a network" /><br /></p>
<p>For
this scenario, configure a <strong>local console on a network</strong>. </p>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Advantages:</h4><ul><li>You can configure a single PC to be the console for several different
servers or partitions as long as they are connected to the service connection
network. There are a maximum of 26 active consoles at a time but you may have
a virtually unlimited number of configurations.</li>
<li>The administrator will not need to be physically near the server to manage
the console.</li>
<li>Security features are available to protect your console connections. </li>
<li>A local console on a network is the connectivity of choice for partitions
in an LPAR environment. </li>
<li>Multiple PCs can be configured as the console to a server or partition,
but only one can be active at a time.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Disadvantages:</h4><ul><li>No console is available in the event that a network failure takes place
unless a backup console is available. Configure a local console directly attached
to the server or a twinaxial console for backup. </li>
<li>Your server will need a separate LAN card to be used by the console or
other service tools.</li>
</ul>
