|
<div><p>If you know in advance that you will need a different console type
|
|
you can use the current console to make the changes necessary for use with
|
|
a different console.</p>
|
|
<div class="section"><p>If the hardware resources for the targeted console type have already
|
|
been specified and configured for use as a console, making the change may
|
|
be as simple as specifying the new console mode and activating the associated
|
|
hardware resource. However, if hardware used for the targeted console type
|
|
will require allocation or configuration, you will need to use the appropriate
|
|
information in <span class="uicontrol">Change from one console type to another</span>. </p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="section"><div class="p">An example would be the planned loss of the network used by your
|
|
LAN-connected console. You will be doing some infrastructure changes requiring
|
|
more than a day. You also have the console cable already installed between
|
|
the server's asynchronous communications adapter and the PC. You can use
|
|
either DST or SST to change the console mode to a 2 for Operations Console
|
|
direct. The asynchronous communications adapter will not be active at this
|
|
time since the console mode is set for LAN so you would have to manually start
|
|
the asynchronous card with a function 66 on the control panel or remote control
|
|
panel. Once
|
|
the communications line is active you can disconnect the LAN-connected console
|
|
and create a configuration for the direct attached local console, if a configuration
|
|
doesn't already exist, and start a connection. To switch back to the LAN-connected
|
|
console you would only have to use the direct-attached console to enter either
|
|
DST or SST and change the console mode to a 3, disconnect the existing console
|
|
and restart the LAN-connected console. Since the hardware resource configuration
|
|
didn't change there isn't a need for further changes. You could deactivate
|
|
the asynchronous communications adapter manually
|
|
or just wait until the next IPL. The IPL will not start the asynchronous
|
|
communications adapter because the console mode is now set for LAN.<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> To
|
|
activate the new console without an IPL you could perform the console service
|
|
function of 65+21+21. Once the console mode has been updated performing the
|
|
console service function will disconnect the current console and restart the
|
|
console type you just specified. See link to console service function documents.</div>
