RE: New 170 installation and initial setup

If you are able to get a console you could IPL at the BM side. To do
this power off and change the  status of the IPL to B M. M means
'Manual' IPL and some System Values can be changed to 'ease up' on
security. Just remember what you change and change only what you are
sure of. Hope this helps this weekend.
