It makes sense.

This means that when CP doesn't find a 3270 console from the list op operator consoles, it uses SYSC. In second level, it means line mode emulated by the first level VM system. And there the TERM settings of the first level will be used. If the address of the virtual console of the user in which you start the second level VM is in the list of SYSTEM CONFIG, then indeed your IPL 125B will make the second level work in 3270 mode. If you don't understand what I try to explain in few words, try what I tell Q V CONS#SYSTEM RESET#TERM CONMODE 3270 IPL 125B LOADPARM CONSnnnn Then you tell your second level CP to use "nnnn" as console, and TERM CONMODE 3270 will be honored. 2010/11/11 George Henke/NYLIC <george_he...@newyorklife.com> For 2d Level setup I enter: sys clear term conmode 3270 set mach esa i 125b clear Kris Buelens <kris.buel...@gmail.com> Sent by: The IBM z/VM Operating System <IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU> 11/11/2010 04:15 PM Please respond to The IBM z/VM Operating System <IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU> To IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU cc Subject Re: Streamlining the IPL Is your second level VM system using a 3270 console? Or, is it using the HMC linemode console, emulated by the first level host (aka SYSC) (If you don't know, start the second level system like this: Q V CONS note the address, often 0009 is used SYSTEM RESET TERM CONMODE 3270 IPL xxxx LOADPARM CONSnnnn (nnnn is the address you found with Q V CONS) 2010/11/11 George Henke/NYLIC <george_he...@newyorklife.com> Everything looks good except for 'MORE" processing. Although the OPERATOR screen does not got to "HOLD", it waits the default 50 seconds before scrolling to the next screen. It seems to be ignoring the first 0 in TERM MORE 0 0 Whether I use 2 TERM commands or 1 the result is the same. >From OPERATOR's PROFILE EXEC: Address Command 'SYNONYM SYN' 'CP TERMINAL MODE VM' 'CP SPOOL CONSOLE * START' 'CP SET RUN ON' 'CP TERM HOLD OFF MORE 0 0' 'CP SET PF11 RETRIEVE FORWARD' 'CP SET PF12 RETRIEVE BACKWARD' 'CP SET PF23 RETRIEVE FORWARD' 'CP SET PF24 RETRIEVE BACKWARD' Is the SET RUN ON perhaps interfering? It should be noted this is a PoC at Level 2 Perhaps this difference in behavior is connected with that. Or is this how it is supposed to work?.

To get CP to automatically IPL with no operator prompts for what kind of IPL to do and to set the date and time, add the following to the FEATURES statement in the production SYSTEM CONFIG file: ENABle AUTO_WARM_IPL, To have the TERM MORE 0 0 and TERM HOLD OFF commands automatically be issued at IPL time, you can either: 1) have the OPERATOR user id IPL CMS (with PARM AUTOCR specified) and then have the PROFILE EXEC file issue the CP TERM commands, or 2) add the COMMAND directory control statement to OPERATOR's user directory entry like so: COMMAND TERM MORE 0 0 COMMAND TERM HOLD OFF if you do not want OPERATOR running CMS. Have a good one.
