Re: VM CONSOLE on the 9672
Does your 9672 runs in LPAR mode? If not, it is possible that the Integrated 3270 console doesn't work, it'll remain black. And, to complement Alan: you enter SYSG in the loadparm field to get the SAPL screen. 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.

Re: VM CONSOLE on the 9672
Are you talking about a 9672 which is at least 2 if not at least 3 generations old? What would be the most current version of VM that box could run?

If the 9672 moves you up to a new (virtual) model group, then your MLC increases.
