Well, it does. :-) The only surprise was that I had to issue the SETCON DELETE command on the system the HMCS console was attached to. I had thought that since console definitions are sysplex in scope, I could issue the command anywhere in the plex and have it internally routed to the system the console is attached to. But that's not a problem. So I deleted the console named HMCS, did a SET CON=xx on the system HMCS was formerly defined to, and voila, a subsequent d c,f,cn=(name) was showing me the newly named HMCS&sysname. in standby mode. Oh, and by the way - I erroneously did the t con=xx *before* deleting the console named HMCS. Apparently there can be only one HMCS console on any one system, because the second name, HMCS&sysname., did not show up until I had deleted the HMCS console named HMCS. Problem solved.
