I don't understand this: on my model 170, I have two devices, QCONSOLE and
DSP01.  They look as follows:

                           Display Device Description

To me, other than the model, they look exactly the same.  But my console is
varied off:

     DSP01       3487    Sign-On display
     DSP02       3487    Powered off or not yet available
     DSP03       3487    Powered off or not yet available
     DSP04       3487    Sign-On display
     QCONSOLE    3487    Unavailable (use Opt 1)

Above is the status of my various devices.  When I hit Alt-Jump on my 3486,
I bounce back and forth between DSP01 and DSP04.  I guess that my console is
varied off on the model 170, and I'm instead using DSP01.  When I look at
the system value QCONSOLE, it says DSP01.

Okay, that's the moel 170 and the 3486.  I guess I understand them well
enough.  But what's with my model 270?  Could it be that my system console
is varied off on the new box, but nobody set DSP01 to be accessible to
QSECOFR?

If so, how in the world do I fix it?

Joe
