However, steps 3 and 4 must be executed without ANY delay, otherwise the whole sysplex will hang. Specifically, system reset must be executed only after the LPAR goes in wait state 0A2. Once the LPAR is reset, then the DOWN reply follows. If you delay the reply for whatever reason, the other LPARs in the sysplex will hang. This is the reason why I'd rather automated both steps, leaving SFM to do this. What I still miss, is if SFM can automate the reply to IXC102A, or an automation package must step in. Walter Marguccio
