Re: IPL Error

[Al Barsa <barsa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dave,

I would respectfully disagree.  The console should show up in the
controlling subsystem.  IBM ships two controlling subsystems, QBASE and
QCTL, however you can change this to any subsystem you want.  This is
determined by the system value QCTLSBSD.

We found that we had a similar situation except that we found it on the
first IPL of a V5R3 upgrade.  Our original twinax console had died last
year and was replaced with another twinax terminal but was never set to
address 0.  A normal IPL found it plugged into port 0 but this one did not.
If you do a normal IPL does the console show up under QINTER or QCTL?  If
QINTER I would say that it's the address.

For a twinax terminal to be a "console" it must be set to address 0 and
be on port 0 of the first twinax controller.  Anything else will *only*
work when the OS is running (after IPL).
