Working with SystemGuard
SystemGuard parameters and flags may be changed from different locations. They can be
changed from the SystemGuard STAND-BY MENU, the SystemGuard MAINTENANCE
MENU, the Diagnostics interface, and also from AIX.
When the key signal is received, SystemGuard clears the screen and displays the
SystemGuard prompt. At this point, a keyword can be entered. The supported keywords are:
power
sbb

This keyword starts the system, exactly as if the power button is pushed.
You can change, disable or enable this keyword: see "Power-On Command
Parameters" on page 2-33 for details. Turning the system power on makes
the system enter the init phase. Thus, if the Key Mode Switch is in the
Service position, and if the AutoService IPL flag is disabled, you enter the
Maintenance Menu .
This keyword displays the STAND-BY menu.
