Configure

Dials

and

LPF Keys

Note:

The

Dials

and

LPF

Keys

service

aid

is

not

supported

in

standalone

mode

(CD-ROM and NIM) on systems with

32 MB or less memory. If you have

problems in standalone mode, use the hardfile-based diagnostics.

This

service

aid provides a tool for configuring and removing dials and LPF Keys to

the

asynchronous

serial ports.

Since

version

4.1.3 a tty must be

defined on the async port before the Dials and L

Keys

can

be

configured on the port. Prior to version 4.2, the Dials and LPF Keys

could

only

be

configured

on

the standard serial

ports. In

version

4.2

and

later,

the

Dials

and LPF Keys can be configured on any async port.

This

selection

invokes

the

SMIT

utility to

allow Dials

and

LPF

Keys

configuration. A

tty

must

be

in

the

available

state

on

the

async

port

before the

Dials

and LPF Keys

can be

configured on

the

port. The

task

allows

an

async

adapter

to

be configured,

then

a tty port defined on the adapter. Dials

and LPF

Keys

can

then

be

defined

on

the

port.
