RE: Op's console versus W2K SP4

Rob,

I believe it would have successfully used the QCONSOLE device descriptoin 
if a manual IPL was done, regardless of the setting for QAUTOCFG.

RE: Op's console versus W2K SP4






Would it really auto-configure if someone had renamed the command 
CRTDEVDSP to CRTDEVDSPX like what happened here?  QAUTOVRT is a sick joke. 

 To stop iSeries Access from creating sessions, (which runs CRTDEVDSP 
under the covers) you have to rename the command.  This was a server only 
machine that had no need for people to have sessions on it.

If you IPL'd in manual mode, the console would auto-configure and you 
could
create your new console for your controlling subsystem.  Now your win98 PC
operations console died.  You are running V4R4.  The new PC is running XP.
Your shop is pure Linux, except for the operations console.  Try getting 
it
working.  I bet you I can walk someone over the phone to configure the new
twinax console faster than an XP operations console expert can tell you
where to down load the right patches for XP.
