Configure the service tools server for OS/400
You must add the service tools server to the service table in order to access
service tools on OS/400® using TCP/IP and iSeries™ Navigator. The service tools
server can be added before configuring your local area network (LAN). To add the
service tools server to the service table, complete the following steps:
1. From any command line, type ADDSRVTBLE (Add Service Table Entry) and press
Enter. The Add Service Table Entry display appears.
2. Enter the following information in the fields provided:
* Service: as-sts
* Port: 3000
* Protocol: 'tcp' (this entry must appear lowercase and in single quotation
marks)
* Text description: 'Service Tools Server'
This field is optional, but you are strongly recommended to enter a description
of the table entry.
3. Press F10 (Additional Parameters).
4. Enter AS-STS in the Alias field. The Alias must be capitalized because some
table searches are case-sensitive.
5. Press Enter to add the table entry.
6. TCP/IP must be ended and restarted for the service table entry to be use. If
you cannot end TCP at this time, you will not be able to use the service tools
server. Enter ENDTCP (End TCP) to end TCP/IP if this is possible in your
environment.
7. Enter STRTCP (Start TCP). Verify that the service tools server is listening
to port 3000 by entering NETSTAT OPTION(*CNN) from a 5250 session. Look for
as-sts under the heading Local Port with a State value of Listen.
If you will be using iSeries Navigator to perform disk unit or logical partition
configuration and management, you need to complete the following steps once per
server:
Note:
Start of change
If your server model is not 8xx, you must use the Hardware Management Console
(HMC) to manage OS/400 partitions. For more information, see Partitioning with
an HMC.
End of change
1. From an iSeries Navigator session, right-click the server name under My
Connections (for your environment you may use your own name for the connections
function instead of the default My Connections).
2. Select Application Administration. Press OK until you get to a window with a
Host Applications tab. Select the Host Applications tab, expand Operating
System/400®, and expand Service.
3. Select any of the service tools that you want to authorize: Disk Units,
QIBM_QYTP_SERVICE_LPARMGMT, or Service Trace. You can select more than one.
4. Press OK. These functions are now available to the iSeries Navigator user
provided they have a service tools user ID.
Once the service tools server has been added to the service table, authorized
users can access the logical partition (LPAR) and disk management service
functions using iSeries Navigator and TCP/IP. Note that, as with all service
tools user IDs, you can selectively grant or restrict a user to specific service
functions using functional privileges.
