Default user (SERVER)

SERVER is an identification name that Operations Console assigns when there is no user in control (either the local console or a remote console) of a server.

When no user has iSeries™ control, SERVER is displayed in the Current User field. In addition, Operations Console automatically grants control to the first requester (local console or remote console).

Operations Console automatically grants control to the first requester in the following cases:

Immediately after you release control at a local console that is directly attached with remote access allowed.
Immediately after Connecting a local console directly attached without remote access allowed, if it started in unattended mode.
When SERVER is displayed in the Current User field.
