Do you have any instructions on how to set up the XPe Twinax Console?
Do you have any instructions on how to set up the XPe Twinax Console?
Where can I find documentation to set up the IP console? I need to change the console value but I can't get my AS/400
up to make the change - I get an SRC of A6005008 or B6005008. On an iSeries 520 running V5R4 you can use the console service functions (65+21) to change the console mode from its current value to another. Check with IBM regarding the sequence for other iSeries models.
Place the server into manual mode by using the system's control panel
Using the Up and Down buttons, select function 25. Press the Enter button.
Use the Up button to select function 26. Press the Enter button.
A function 65 is performed from one of the input methods. You have approximately 45 seconds to enter a function 21 for the system to pair the two functions together. If not, the function 21 is a force of DST to the console. Depending on the state of the current IPL you may or may not see a change at the console, assuming the console is still present after the 65. If the 65 and 21 are entered in less than 45 seconds an SRC of A6nn500A should appear on the control panel. Repeating the 65 and 21 puts the system into an edit mode in which you can make a change or cause an action to be performed. After the second 65+21 pair is entered, the control panel will respond with the SRC of A6nn500B to indicate you are in edit mode. Each repeated 65+21 within edit mode will increment nn of the SRC until you reach the value representing what action you intend to perform. At this time you enter just a single 21 which will cause the selected function to be performed. The SRC should then become A6nn500C to indicate the function was successfully submitted. You can cancel out of edit mode by doing a function 66.
The following codes will allow you to track your progress:A6nn 500x
Where nn means:
00 = no console defined
01 = Twinax console
02 = Direct attached Operations Console
03 = LAN Operations Console
C3 = Clear LAN configuration
A3 = Deactivate followed by an activate of the LAN Operations Console adapter
DD - Dump all console related flight recorder into a set of vlogs<
The serial console does not connect consistently -
sometimes we have to reboot or even IPL to get it to connect. Keep in mind that the IP/Serial console is shipped with the base install of V5R3 with no service packs. Install the latest service pack for iSeries Access and make certain you have latest PTFs for the OPCON installed. To install V5R4 you will need to uninstall V5R3 iSeries from the PC and install V5R4 fresh and then apply the latest service pack.
