2. Use the talk
pid
command, where
pid
is the number of the process to which
you want to connect. (For more information about these and other OPCON
commands, refer to “Chapter 3. The OPCON Process” on page 25.)
Note: Not every process listed has a user interface (for example, the talk 3
process). The talk 4 command is for use by IBM service representatives.
Identifying Prompts
Each process uses a different prompt. You can tell which process your console is
connected to by looking at the prompt. (If the prompt does not appear when you
enter the talk
pid
command, press the Return key a few times.)
The following list shows the prompts for the five main processes:

Note: Only enter the talk 4 command under the direction of a service representative.
At the OPCON prompt level, you can begin to enter commands from the keyboard.
Use the Backspace key to delete the last character typed in on the command line.
Use Ctrl-U to delete the whole command line entry so that you can reenter a
command. See “Command History for GWCON and CONFIG Command Line” on
page 21 for information on how to access previously entered commands.
Getting Help
At the command prompts, you can obtain help in the form of a listing of the
commands available at that level. To do this, type ? (the help command), and then
press Enter. Use ? to list the commands that are available from the current level.
You can usually enter a ? after a specific command name to list its options. For
example, the following information appears if you enter ? at the * prompt:
*?
BREAKPOINT
DIVERT output from process
FLUSH output from process
HALT output from process
