Re: remotely manage ptfs

Actually putting a system in manual mode remotely is QED.  If it's not the 
controlling partition in an LPAR environment then STRSST on the 
controlling partition and go through the steps.  If no LPAR, then I 
suppose you could use that part of Op's Console that allows you to look at 
an image of the front panel.

I've gotten rather fond of the STRSST method.  Beats the heck out of 
trying to decipher what a hurricane symbol, or masturb@ting hand is.

My only comment is that you can do most everything remotely except for
mounting CD's and putting the system into manual mode (which represents a
security risk).

Have task to remotely manage
ptfs for several different customers via internet.
These are very small shops with no IT staff,
we are not the Business Partner (we are the
only app software vendor for these customers).
Probably a qtr or semi annual update of cume & groups.
Rare single ptf may be required, mostly for tcp printing.
Would appreciate comments from others who do this.
Is Management Central the way to go? FTP also avail.
Download from IBM vs cd's?
Is IBM now charging for the cd's?
