Re: ACS LAN console

That did it!

I've got console and control panel up. Do I now "save" this in some way?
In the old Access for Windows Operations Console, it would start both for
me when I connected.

Jeff,

I don't have access to a console anymore at my new position...

But trying changing from 27x132 to 24x80 (or maybe vice versa)...

V7R1, LAN console.

Back on 9/28/16, Charles Wilt posted the following to connect to the
console via ACS:

"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."

When I do the above, I get a 5250 session which says this:

<5250 session>

This terminal type 3477 does not match the existing connected session.

</5250 session>


Is this telling me the console I have defined for use in IBM i Access

for

Windows is not usable here? It's defined as a "3179" and it needs to

be a

"3477"? (Those are old dumb terminal numbers, right?)

Is there a way to have the console work in either IBM i Access for

Windows

or ACS? The console was set up for me many years ago by IBM so I'm not

an

expert in this by any means. Thanks.
