Does your 9672 runs in LPAR mode? If not, it is possible that the Integrated 3270 console doesn't work, it'll remain black.

Then in the overrides, you can enter CONS=SYSG to get CP there too. 2011/4/7 Alan Altmark <alan_altm...@us.ibm.com> > On Thursday, 04/07/2011 at 12:10 EDT, Ray Padre <ray.pa...@metcash.com> > wrote: > > Thanks Alan.
