QSECOFR password

[Peter Kinsman]

We have just taken delivery of a new Model 170 and it will not accept
QSECOFR as the password for QSECOF signon - even after resetting the system
password. Has anyone else had a similar experience?

I believe the signon is also QSECOFR

So

QSECOFR
QSECOFR

Last week had a problem but today it got worse.

We have a new Model 170 which is due to be installed this coming weekend.
When we tried to sign on after the first IPL, it rejected the QSECOFR
password of QSECOFR. Someone suggested it did not like the 3477 screen so
we changed it for a 3197. Same problem. Then we reset the system password
but to no avail. Eventually the QSECOFR profile got disabled so there was
no option but to reload the operating system. The new problem is that it
doesn't think either screen is the console, so when we try to IPL we get a
processor light and SRC A9002000.
Has anyone any suggestions as to how to get out of this? Would an IPL from
CD achieve anything?

Here's hoping

You're making this too hard. Three weeks ago I installed a new 170.
I thought the problem with QSECOFR's password was just my 'fat fingers',
anyway it got disabled. Manual powerdown, Manual IPL, DST to
Enter Password

SRC A900200 means successful IPL, the attention light means
the console wasn't available. Cable loose, terminal broke or
turned off. Make sure the cursor moves from upper right to
upper left corner when the system comes up, this means terminal
is connected. RTFM.

Basic System Operation, Administration, and Problem
Handling has instructions for powerdown from the panel and
manual IPL. During the Manual IPL you can enter DST and use
the QSECOFR's password. Instructions are in the manuals that
came with my system .

I don't know the terms of your purchase but normally
there's free telephone support for 30 or 90 days on a new system
(purchased from IBM).

There is no reason to reload the system, OS/400 is not
Windows.

Thanks for the reply.
re the console and A9002000 problem, there is only one screen connected and
it comes up as DSP01, so there can be no loose wires or the like.
In DST I can use QSECOFR/QSECOFR but as soon as I try to IPL to actually get
into OS/400 it all falls about.

Peter,

Is your DSP01 address 0 (zero) and connected to port 0 (zero) ?

DSP01 doesn't means much if you've auto-config.

Ok have you tried to enable the user profile for QSECOFR
With CHGUSRPRF while you're in DST? If the display comes up as
DSP01 you've got the right address on the right port. If it
comes up with a signon display, what do you mean by 'falls about'?

I've only done it three times in the last 20 years, so I
don't remember the exact sequence, but all I did, was follow
the instructions, I think I had to IPL twice once because I
didn't enable QSECOFR before I IPL'd.

Solved that part of the problem:
The box was bought to replace a remote 5494 with all 8 ports used, so needed
the optional 8 port twinax cable assembly. This came with a book of
instructioins, including a picture showing the console plugged in to port 0.
Unfortunately, the console actually needs to plug into port 0 of the
original 4 port twinax cable. Change that and hey presto.
However
The box came with a variety of system values, like a Traditional Chinese
keyboard but poud sign as currency. The new problem is that according to
the packin note, it has language 2917 - English U/L DBCS but the software
that came with it are 2924 with the result that I can load the programs but
not the language objects.
Incidentally, how do you selectively load from a CD which has software which
is not in the standard list? In particular I want to load parts of
Officevision.

Many thanks for your interest but I will be glad when this installation is
over.

You should use the RSTLICPGM command with LNG(*SAVVOL) parameter instead
of LNG(*PRIMARY) that's the default. This will probably create the
library QSYS2924 and you should manually list this name in the QSYSLIBL
system value. Try with WRKSYSVAL QSYSLIBL command and take option 2 to
change the list.
