scpimply on - Not honored any more ? #130

Closed fbi-ranger closed 8 years ago

fbi-ranger commented 8 years ago

scpimply on passed automatically all commands not understood by Hercules to the guest system. Seems that this not working any more.

It is necessary to put / in a command to pass it to the guest os.

I IPLed DDR to make a standalone restore. Now I do have to prefix every command with '/'

I believe you are mistaking Integrated Console printer-keyboard device command prefixes with Hercules panel command implied SCP (System Control Program) replies:

To send a reply to the SCP from the HMC (Hardware Maintenance Console, i.e. the Hercules panel interface) you need to prefix your reply with a . dot or period. (To send an unsolicited message to the SCP prefix your message with a ! bang or exclamation point instead.)

To reply to a Integrated Console printer-keyboard device from the HMC you need to prefix your reply with the device's defined command prefix character.
