We have never defined any installation userids on any SE. The only users defined are the standard IBM supplied one. Are you saying, if we defined at least a few of our own, we could have multiple 'sysprogs' logged on simultaneously?

There are many ways to update IOCDS. One of them is to update IOCDS in CEC #1 when working on LPAR under CEC #2. However for this scenario you need to set up your "CEC plex" or rather "SE plex" (SE=Support element). First step is to connect internal networks. Internal network is the LAN between HMC and SE. Usually it is three node network: SE, Alternate SE and HMC. Recommended way is to connect all the SEs and HMCs in one LAN (excluding optional remote HMC). You need to change SE and HMC adresses and change HMC name. Defaults are the same causing conflict. Next you have to add CPCs (objects) to HMCs - the best way is every HMC manage every CPC. BTW: It is also good idea to set up domain security now. Otherwise someone with illegal CPC (grin) or illegal HMC would be able to connect to your SE plex. Note: everything I described can be done remotely, however that require proper planning and order of changes. A mistake could cause a trip to datacenter to fix it. And be sure you have valid userids and passwords on each SE and HMC. -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
