The service processor (SVP) is operated under menu guidance via the “SVP Console Window”. The SVP console window is made available by the SE Manager when the SVP console is called.
Jobs are assigned to the service processor via special SVP frames (in this chapter abbreviated to: frames). All the information you require as an operator working with the frames can be found in this chapter.
After switching on the MU and the Server Unit, BS2000 operation must be prepared, i.e. the BS2000 operating system must be loaded (IPL = Initial Program Load). The following activities may be required for the IPL:
select the IORSF (Input/Output Resource File) and start the IMPL (Initial Micro Program Load)
This is only necessary if you want to load another IORSF.specify the operating mode (Native/VM2000)
This is only necessary if you want to change the mode setting.start IPL using PROGRAM LOAD FRAME
To do this you may have to redefine device parameters in the DETAIL-1 frame.configure an automatic IPL (POWER ON IPL)
The following sections provide examples of standard processing relevant to loading of BS2000. There is also an description of how to select a particular configuration and how to re-initialize the SVP.
