The check is implemented in module BLWHCCHK The part of interest to you simply does the following: If (DGNBPTR ¬= 0) /* If there is a DGNB, */ & (DgnbAI_SADIPL /* If the policy says to take a SADMP, or */ | DgnbAI_MvsReIPL /* the policy says to re-IPL MVS then */ ) Then /* the policy exists */ ReturnValue = KAutoIPLPolicyIsActive; Else /* the policy doesn't exist */ ReturnValue = KAutoIPLPolicyIsNotActive; So, for your AUTOIPL SADMP(NONE) MVS(NONE) , the health check says that the policy is not active. I am just telling you what it does. I didn't do it. Don't shoot the messenger. Although, I was probably asked to review the design, and I probably didn't. I would agree that saying " AutoIPL policy is not active." is not the most accurate way do describe this state of affairs. It might be more accurate to say that there is always a policy, and the policy says that "AutoIPL is not active" for SADMP(NONE) MVS(NONE), or "AutoIPL is active" if SADMP or MVS is not NONE. The change flags in the checking module suggests that it was written in a country where the native language is not English, and maybe that has something to do with the English language wording. If you interpret the message as BLWH0001E AutoIPL policy is "not active". (with my quotes for emphasis), then it says that the policy says "not active". Jim Mulder z/OS System Test IBM Corp.
