I don't see an attached file... To enter CP commands when Linux is active you have several choices - hit the PA1 key, it will place you in CP READ and then you enter a CP command - issue #CP xxxx - when logged on to a Linux user (like root) you can try HCP xxxx or VMCP xxxx - or use the SCIF, the Single Image Console Facility: from a VM user with enough CP classes -- SET SECUSER LINUXxyz * -- SET SEND CP LINUXxyz xxxxx The first command defines you as secondary user of LINUXxyz which means that all console output of LINUXxyz will be routed to you if LINUXxyz is disconnected, the SEND command sends a CP command to LINUXxyz
Note that the # character and PA1 can have been redefined with the CP TERMinal command, issue Q TERM and look for LINEND and BREAKIN 2007/10/20, GnanaShekar Subramani <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > Hi, > > After logging through the 3270 terminal emulator, I am being asked to > login to the linux guest. > > So there is no provison to enter CP commands. > Find the attached file for more details. > > Please suggest. > Thanks & Regards, > -GnanaShekar- > > > On 10/18/07, RPN01 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Another starting point, if the guests are connected via vSwitch, would > > be to > > "query vswitch" to get the name of the virtual switch.
