DST in OS/400 full paging environment
DST operates in stand-alone (non-paging), limited, and full paging environments.
The DST tools and functions vary depending on the paging environment (see
“System paging environments” on page 2) and the OS/400 operating system that is
used.
The full paging environment is used during normal system operation. The
following options appear on the
Use Dedicated Service Tools (DST) display for
the OS/400 operating system:
v Perform an IPL
v Install the operating system
v Work with Licensed Internal Code
v Work with disk units
v Work with DST environment
v Select DST console mode
v Start a service tool
