But now in my new job AFTER outsourcing, we have an IBM z890. On the Hitachi CMOS boxen, we ALWAYS changed the time via the hardware screens on the processor complex, and then did a POR (Power On Reset) to IML the box, and then proceeded to IPL each LPAR image. Here, they just issue the CLOCK command and update SYS1.PARMLIB to change the time, sans IPL. Obviously BOTH methods work, but I seem to remember a reason WHY issuing the CMD to MVS (sorry, z/OS) is faulty, that's why we IML'd. ?!?!?! How do youse all guys/gals do it by you, and/or am I just experiencing brain lock and/or just having an ALZHEIMERs moment?! THANX, Mark H.
