Re: how to have AS/400 console at home

[Brendan Bispham <midrangel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry, Dean is right...

You can go to restricted state from any twinax device and run RCLSTG,
SAVSYS... and it doesnt have to be the console.

A restricted system state needs only a single interactive job in the
controlling subsystem, which can get there via TFRJOB.
