Determining the primary or alternate console
Use this procedure to determine the primary or alternate console.
If the management console has been configured as the primary console, the system will open a console
on the management console.
If the Operations Console has been configured as the primary console, the system will start the
Operations Console. If the Operations Console has not been configured, the primary console is a
workstation that is attached to the first input/output processor (IOP) that is capable of supporting
workstations.
In addition to the primary console, the system can assign an alternative consoles. The alternative console
can be a workstation that is attached to the next IOP or input/output adapter (IOA) that is capable of
supporting workstations.
The IOP that supports the console must be on the first system bus (bus 1).
If a workstation is not correctly attached to the first IOP that is capable of attaching workstations, then
the system will not assign a primary console. The system displays a reference code on the operator's
panel. In addition, if the IPL (initial program load) mode is set to manual, the system will stop.
