9.1.5 Managing KVP devices
A KVP (console distribution program) with the name HV0 is preconfigured on the MU and
SU x86 (see table 4 on page 168 and table 6 on page 171). You can delete the existing KVP
and then define a new one with different values.
BS2000 sees a KVP as two (emulated) KVP devices (or a device pair) which are identified
by their mnemonic names.
For VM2000 mode it is necessary to define at least one KVP per VM. By default HV0 is the
monitor system's KVP.
Access to a BS2000 console always takes place via the KVP and the home account. An
operator requires an individual right for access. For information on this, see section
“Opening the BS2000 console and dialog window” on page 112.
i Recommendation:
Define precisely one KVP for each VM (in the case of SU /390 for each MU).
