Joe,

You'll need another FC #2838 (or 4838 same deal.) You'll want to put it in C06. The fun part is getting i5/OS to know that you switched form twinax to LAN console. Run STRSST and then option 8. From there option 4 will configure the card's IP and such. Option 3 sets the console type.
For the PC Console I strongly recommend V6R1 of the client code. MUCH improved over previous releases as they enhanced it to work with Blades. I use it exclusively for FrankieIII's console.
Thanks, Larry. I have a brand new 515 in a box here... I haven't even unpacked it yet. It will be using a LAN console from the get-go, so I'm going to learn about it. Hopefully I can get a V6R1 copy, even though the machine was shipped with V5R4 (don't even get me started on that).

I'll configure the 515 as a failover for the 270 (the 270 runs my websites and other web applications). Then I'll upgrade the 270 to the LAN console.
