This section describes how to perform Console Administration.

Operation

1. From the eXtended System Control Facility (XSCF) Administration menu, select [Console Administration].
2. Specify the following information in the menu:
   • Show User List

     Lists the Console Administration information.

     console	:	Input and output destinations of the standard console of the main unit
     RW-port	:	Current status of port 23 (standard console)
     RO-port	:	Current status of port 8011 (read-only console)
     SCF-port	:	Current status of port 8010 (remote XSCF connection and XSCF shell)
     timeout	:	<enable or disable> Status of the automatic no-communication disconnection function of an XSCF shell
     time	:	<time> Status of the automatic no-communication disconnection function of an XSCF shell
     		However, time is displayed only when timeout is set to "enable."

   • Select Standard Console

     Change the setting for the standard console.

     • Serial Port

       Switches the input-output channels of the standard console to the ordinary serial port.

     • LAN Port

       Switches the input-output channels of the standard console to the XSCF LAN.

   

   XSCF controls the standard console (/dev/console) of the main unit using a network via TCP port 23 of XSCF. The serial port can also be used as usual.

   • Access Control of Read-only Console

     Switches enabling and disabling of access to XSCF port 8011 (read only port used to reference /dev/console output of the main unit).

   • Access Control of XSCF remote control

     Switches enabling and disabling of access to the XSCF port 8010 (XSCF shell port used to remotely control XSCF itself).

   • Auto-disconnect Administration of XSCF remote control

     For the case that no communication occurs during a given time after login to the XSCF shell, sets the disconnection time as 1 to 255 minutes. The default is "10 minutes."

     If 0 is specified, using the automatic disconnection function with a timeout is disabled.
