Create a service tools device ID using an existing console
The virtual control panel (VCP) requires an available, unused service tools device ID. If the server does
|
|
not use Operations Console (LAN) for the console mode, you can use the existing service tools device ID
of QCONSOLE. If you know that Operations Console (LAN) is not being used you may skip to the
|
|
section below to create a service tools device ID. To check the current console mode setting, do the
|
following:

Note: This work can also be performed using SST. Use the Work with service tools user IDs and Devices
option on the System Service Tools (SST) main menu and skip the step Select System devices.

|
3.
Select System devices.

|
To create a service tools device ID follow these steps:

|
|
