Default HMC console language selection

When connecting to a hardware management console via 5250 emulator console session, you must select your language option. (we always use option 21) It would be nice to have a feature to default to a preferred language selection.

    Hi,

    Are you using the local console or connecting via ACS? ACS has a fastpath option which bypasses language selection etc.

    thanks.
