For those present in Seattle for the very successful Session 2007: Ask
the Experts & MVS Program Closing, there was some disagreement about
whether V XCF,sys,OFF,REIPL would honor the AUTOIPL MVS settings in
DIAGxx or always re-IPL with the last settings used.
Empirical evidence being the best kind, I ran the following experiment.
I looked in my DIAGxx member and found this:
AutoIpl SaDmp(8211,SNSYSC ) Mvs(LAST)
Issuing D DIAG from the console, I saw this:
AUTOIPL SADMP(8211,SNSYSC ) MVS(8110,8100B2 )
I changed, my DIAGxx member to:
AutoIpl SaDmp(8211,SNSYSC ) Mvs(8111,8100B2 )
then issued the following command to dynamically effect the change:
T DIAG=xx
and proved it was there by issuing:
D DIAG
which returned (among other things):
AUTOIPL SADMP(8211,SNSYSC ) MVS(8111,8100B2 )
I then issued:
V XCF,sys,OFF,REIPL
and the re-IPL failed. (I guess 8111 is not an IPLable volume). The
error was:
Central processor (CP) 0 in partition MVSA0, entered disabled wait state.
The disabled wait program status word (PSW) is 000a00000000000f.
Central storage bytes 0-7 are: 000a00000000000f.
So there you have it. V XCF,sys,OFF,REIPL *does* use the AUTOIPL DIAGxx
settings!
