Setting IPL type to B

 

To set the system initial program load (IPL) type to B, you can use the SetIPLTypeB API (use the uppercase and lowercase shown).

You must insert a key to use this command (on systems with a keystick). The system must be in Manual mode.

This API returns the following information:

Bytes 0 and 1	Bytes 2 and 3	Bytes 4 through 4+N
16-bit return code 0 = Command successful 1 = Command unsuccessful 2 = Key not inserted 4 = Not in Manual mode	16-bit additional data length N = 0	Not applicable
