2. Sign on with at least service level authority.
3. On the command line of the IBM i session, type strsst and press Enter.
Note: If you cannot get to the System Service Tools display, use function 21 from the control panel.
Alternatively, if the system is managed by Hardware Management Console (HMC), use the Service
Focal Point Utilities to get to the Dedicated Service Tools (DST) display.
4. Type your service tools user ID and service tools password on the System Service Tools (SST) Sign On
display and press Enter.
Note: The service tools password is case-sensitive.
