Re: New Access Client as a system console

I use ACS as my console...

Are you sure you're currently using CA LAN Console? There were some other
options back in the day...

Did you follow the docs? What part "doesn't work"?

For IBM i systems that already have a LAN console configuration and are
already in your network infrastructure, the following steps may be used to
find existing console configurations:

1. Start IBM i Access Client Solutions on your PC.
2. On the main panel, click System Configurations.
3. From System Configurations, click the Locate Console... button.
4. On the IBM i Locator panel, update the Near field to an IP address in
the range you want to search.
5. Click the Search button to find LAN consoles in the specified range.
6. Click the displayed IP address to select it, then click on the
Console button to connect a 5250 console.
7. A panel will appear asking for Service Tools credentials.
8. Upon entering valid credentials, a 5250 console will be displayed.

Has anyone installed the new java Access Client on a Windows PC to act as
a console to a single partition system where no HMC is involved? We made
the attempt but were not able to get it to connect to the system. 5250
emulation worked but the console did not. We installed it on the same PC
where we have the old Client Access product which does work as a console.
