You can change three Console interface parameters: screen height, console
disconnections, and the reboot and abort control keys.
Most terminal screens have a height of 24 lines. You can change the
Administration Console's screen height to increase or decrease the space
available for displaying information. You can configure the screen height to
be between 20 to 200 lines or zero (0) for infinite; the default is 24.
Each time the screen output reaches the screen height, you are prompted
to press a key to display more information. To receive no prompts, set the
screen height to infinite (0). At this setting, however, the screen output may
scroll beyond the screen, depending on your screen size.
The screen height setting does not affect the way the system displays menus.
The screen height setting controls the way the system displays information
you request using the menus, such as statistical summaries.
To set the screen height:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
system screenHeight
You are prompted for a screen height value.
2 Enter the screen height (20 to 200). To receive no prompts, set the screen
height to infinite (0).
See the example below:
Enter new screen height or 0 for infinite height [24]:
3 Enter (yes) to use this screen height as the default for future Console
y
sessions. Enter (no) if you want this screen height to be in effect only for
n
this session.
See the example below:
Do you want this to be the new default screen height?
(y/n): y
