Our OSA-ICC consoles are limited to a physically separate network within the datacenter and operator area due to not being encrypted. With the announcement that z13 supports TLS for OSA-ICC sessions, we may be able to open up OSA access to a greater extent (if and when we get z13's) >On Fri, 30 Sep 2016 07:23:29 -0500, John McKown <john.archie.mck...@gmail.com> >wrote: > >​Actually, I'm likely in the small minority (perhaps of 1) who really likes >having _no_ NIPCONs at all. I actually _prefer_ to IPL via the "System >Messages" interface on the HMC. I'm with John on this. At least I was until IBM frequently broke OSM with their unworkable Java dependencies. I'm looking forward to getting the HMC updates that remove the last of Java from HMC code.
