14. Enable the SP Interface by taking the following steps:
a. Press the F2 key to activate the Display Control menu.
b. Select SP Interface and press Enter.
c. Select Enable and press Enter again. Press Enter again to execute.
15. Remove the diskette from the drive unit.
Repeat this procedure for each system console.
When done with a system console, you may copy and activate the Autoaction Message
System (AMS) database at that console (10.14). Alternatively, you may install the hosts
files first on all system consoles, then copy and activate the AMS databases.
Continue with the steps in 10.14.
10.14. Installing and Activating the AMS Database
on the 2200 System Console
Autoaction Message System (AMS) provides a pattern-matching capability to recognize and
take automated actions for OS 2200 console messages. For SPO Basic Edition to operate
properly, you must
1. Remotely install the SPO AMS database (hmp-ix22) on each system console (10.14.1).
2. Activate each system console’s AMS database using the AMS Utility session (10.14.2).
3. Change each system console’s startup sessions to Systems Operations (10.14.3).
Note: The installation of the AMS database is done from the SPO server. The
activation is done on the 2200 system console.
10.14.1. Remotely Installing the AMS Database from the SPO
Server
To remotely install the SPO AMS database (hmp-ix22) for each system console, take the
following steps:
Notes:
• Before running the Remote Install Utility (RIU), you may wish to start the SPO
daemons (10.16) to ensure that installation of the AMS database is recorded in the
Remote-Install log. Information from that log may be needed if something goes
wrong during the installation.
• Switch the monitor concentrator to the SPO server position before beginning.
• If you are not in console logon mode, switch out of graphical logon by pressing
Alt-SysRq-P.
1. If you are not already logged on, log on in character mode as spadmin, the SPO
administrator (10.15.3).
