RE: MIDRANGE-L digest, Vol 1 #454 - 17 msgs

Okay, I think I'm in deep bandini.

I tried this, put the key in, selected manual mode from the
remote control panel, selected option 21, pressed enter and...
nothing happened.  The Remote Control Panel showed 21  00.
So I try to open up the console... and am asked for the user
name and password.  Nothing works now, not the 1's, not the 2's,
not QSECOFR, all disabled.

I'm thinking that even if I manual IPL I'll be asked for the user
name and password and can't get in.  What do I do?  Right now my
AS/400 is running, but it is fairly common for someone to modify
or add a new day-end process that waits for a message and we have
to get on the console to answer the message to restart QINTER.

I'm starting to panic a little bit here.

Regards,

Jim Langston

Hello Jim,

To enable the DST user profiles you have to enter the DST menu - to do that
without having to IPL:

1. Insert key
2. Select manual mode
3. Select function 21 - press enter button

The console should now display the DST menu:

4. Select option 5. Work with DST environment
5. Select option 3. Service tools user profiles
6. Select option 5. Enable - for the user profiles in question
7. Back to DST main menu and F3 to exit.
8. Switch back to normal mode and remove key.

- Also note that the DST passwords as of V5R1 are case sensitive (and can be
up to 128 bytes long).

Best regards,
Carsten Flensburg
