Issue/Introduction

When starting ESP the following errors are issued.

ESP955E Console XXXXXXXX not found                        
ESP804W PARAMETER ERROR ON FOLLOWING STATEMENT FROM ESP
ESP803W    CONSOLE XXXXXXXX              

Cause

Console not defined to system

Resolution

A primary console must be active when the request is issued, with the capability for both input and output.

This is found by issuing a D C command to the system ESP is running.

The CONSOLE statement must use an active CONSOLE on this list.

EXAMPLE:

D C                                                                   
CNZ4100I 14.30.30 CONSOLE DISPLAY 679

      ROUT=(1-10,12-128)                                              
      MSCOPE=(CA04)     

ESP would use the following.

CONSOLE CONS001

If the CONSOLE command is not specified in initparms and ESP is Started from a real console, the primary console is set to that console.
If ESP is Not started from a real console, the primary console is set to console ID 0 (console name INTERNAL)
