Service Functions V5R2 | IBM SY44-5902-05 guide

Use this function to activate a remote service session or iSeries Operations Console. This function activates the communications port that is used by remote service or iSeries Operations Console.

Function 67–Disk Unit IOP Reset/Reload: Function 67 is not available for all system types.

This function is used to initiate an IOP dump and a disk unit IOP reset/reload. The function is enabled only when specific SRCs are displayed on the control panel and the associated IOP supports a reset/reload function.

Function 68–Power off Disk Unit IOP/IOA Power Domain: Function 68 is enabled only by specific disk-unit system reference codes (SRCs) such as disk-unit attention SRCs.

Function 69–Power on Disk Unit IOP/IOA Power Domain: Function 69 is enabled when the power domain is powered off.

Function 70–Dump Service Processor Control Storage: This function saves the contents of the service processor control storage into nonvolatile storage for potential use from an error log.
