I can't think of any console parameters that changed unless you are trying to implement the enhanced console feature. (We haven't done that yet, so I don't know what is involved.) Can you use the HMC console or an SDSF session to check for any messages? It may be that you can vary the master console on and bring it back to life.
Jon <snip> My Master console for the 1.7 machine "freezes" after NIP... The IPL contines with no console and the system can be managed via routed commands from other systems. I am using the same CONSOL00 I used pre-sysplex (in turn the same CONSOL00 this LPAR used running 1.4). A "D C" shows me the consoles defined to my production LPAR. Is there some changed parameter I missed in the jump from 1.4 to 1.7? My head is thouroughly scratched; </snip> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
