We too are going to get a z/9 BC (YEAH), and are going to use the integrated
console feature. We have 10 terminals across 3 lpars, but mostly on 1 lpar.
And of course the dumb terminals will have to be replaced with a pc using a
terminal emulator.
Questions;
In your shop are these PCs dedicated to the console function? do you run
other PC functions on them like, microsoft office?
What kind of a network logon do you use for them (in our shop, a pc is
assigned to a person)? These PCs would never be logged off or rebooted in
the normal course of work.
How do you get windows updates installed on these boxes (we tend to
automatically push updates down to PCs)?
It seems strange to have a whole PC whose only job is to act as a tape
console or printer console.
How do manage the real estate problem? Some of our areas only have room for
the terminal, A standard PC monitor may not fit along with the PC and
keyboard.
now I need two power sockets instead of 1.
Any hints or tips on how to manage, control, set up this type of
environment?
Any practical suggestions?
Harold
