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.
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.
Before configuring Dials or LPF keys on a serial port, you must remove all defined
TTYs. To determine if there are any defined TTYs, select List All Defined TTYs. After
all defined TTYs have been removed, add a new TTY and configure the Dials or LPF
keys.
Configure ISA Adapter
This task uses SMIT to identify and configure ISA adapters on systems that have an
ISA bus and adapters.
Diagnostic support for ISA adapters not shown in the list may be supported from a
supplemental diskette. You can use the Process Supplemental Media task to add ISA
adapter support from a supplemental diskette.
Whenever an ISA adapter is installed, this service aid must be run and the adapter
configured before the adapter can be tested. You must also run this service aid to
remove an ISA adapter from the system whenever an ISA adapter is physically
removed from the system.
If diagnostics are run on an ISA adapter that has been removed from the system, the
diagnostics fail because the system cannot detect the ISA adapter.
