The
information in this Readme contains hints and errata information about the

printed in the Hardware Management Console Operations Guide.
·
The Workload Management
Group function is not supported in this version of the HMC. A logical partition's Workload
Management Group ID will be ignored.
·
If a checkstop occurs on
the managed system and the system recovers, but access to that managed system's
virtual terminal is lost, do the following to restore the virtual terminal:
1. On the HMC, right click on the managed system name
that lost the virtual terminal.
2. From the pop-up menu, select "Reset or Remove
Connection".
3. Then select "Reset Connection" and click OK.
·
Under partition property
panel, it doesn't not reflect the 'Allow shared processing pool utilization
authority' correctly.
Work around: use command line to view this attribute.
·
Dynamic partition
configuration for memory move can take a while. During that time, no other
operation can be performed.
·
If a partition is
running with a virtual SCSI or serial adapter, user cannot change the device
attributes (from server to client, client to server) for the next activation.
Work around: Activate without the virtual I/O slot, then later on activate
again with the new setting.
·
When selecting multiple
I/O slots for dynamic partition configuration, it will stop on the first
failure.
·
Unable to remove an I/O
slot from an I/O pool to none through profile activation.
Work around: when modify the profile to make this change, users must modify the
I/O pool attribute and the priority flag (from desired to required or vice
versa).

error.
Work around: Try the activation again.

·
To start a
restricted shell terminal, right mouse click on the desktop to bring up the
menu. Select "Terminals" and then "rshterm".
· Mnemonics are not supported in double byte
and ru locales.
· The HMC uses several external components.
These components are not developed by the HMC team and are translated as part
of a separate translation plan and schedule. The mix of English and translated
text is an unavoidable situation and has the potential to occur anytime the HMC
is updated or pulls in a new version of an external application that is updated
in between its normally scheduled translation cycles.
· Korean input is not supported.
· Traditional and Simplified Chinese input
is supported. Press CTRL-Space to switch between English and Chinese input mode. Press CTRL-Shift to select
an input method. Press space bar to see more Chinese characters.
· Japanese input is supported. Press
Shift-Space to switch between English and Japanese input mode.
· User ID, User information, HMC User
password, Partition name, managed system name, profile name and system profile name are in English only.
· IBM275 doesn't work well when connecting
from IBM Personal Communications or iSeries Access to an HMC. Use another
· An ibm5250 session opened on the HMC
locally will be in the same locale as the one that is set for the HMC. To open
a session in a different locale, change the HMC locale first, logout, login and
then invoke ibm5250. The other option is to connect to the HMC using a remote
emulator, e.g. IBM Personal Communications or iSeries Access, in the desired
locale.
· Power On/Off Unit function under Service
Focal Point -> Service Utilities is in English only.
Note:
For each of the locales that is not supported in the V4 R1 HMC the numeric,
date, time, calendar and currency formats that are specific to a given locale
may not be displayed as expected.
