Chapter 2. i5/OS consoles under System i5
In this chapter we provide details of console options and rules on the Power 5 platform as it
relates to iSeries for stand-alone (non-partitioned) systems and for LPAR systems. For
stand-alone systems, the console IOA placement requirements are very specific and must be
followed. For LPAR systems, the placement rules do not apply, but there are some concerns.
The following topics are covered in this chapter:
򐂰 Console for stand-alone systems
򐂰 Console for partitioned (LPAR) systems
򐂰 Console IOA placement rules for stand-alone systems
򐂰 Console IOA placement rules for stand-alone systems, including IXS considerations
򐂰 Connecting to a 5250 console remotely
