I have suggested IBM needing to bundle the one Twinax port as default
console port on iSeries. That's most of AS/400 customer requirement.
It's more easy than OPNAV console or lan console.  That's very easy tech
to build it on AS/400. But they always answer no need. They really don't
understand customer requrirement. Sometime OPNAV will be better than
5250 green screen with GUI. But most of function stable on 5250 green
screen, and don't need change cable after upgrade. OPNAV console is
really stupid tool to connect to AS/400 as console. Console is most
important device, it needs quickly connect and use, not fancy GUI
screen, even unix console with Xwindow, still have most function need to
be run under text console moe. Console is console, we need more stable
tool to configure AS/400. Not toy tool. Right ?

Best regards,

Vengoal

Subject: I hate OpsConsole!


Hi,

just to let some steam off...

Started release upgrade from V5R1 to V5R2 this morning (on an 820 with 
OpsConsole - that had already gone through V4R5 to V5R1 upgrade). Had 
everything setup
to use an image catalog.

After an hour we get the D1008065 (can't connect to OpsConsole). We try 
every known trick, including control panel recovery functions - no go. 
Upgrade OpsConsole to
CA5.2 - no go.

Only after we connected the OpsConsole cable to another serial port on
the 
820 it would work. What the f**ck is that, IBM?? We already had lots of 
fun when going 4.5 to 5.1
just finding this specific port. And now it is suddenly wrong - with no 
mentioning anywhere?

Another 2 hours blown for nothing..

Gee, at least on our 810 we have an twinax console again...

Regards,

Oliver
