Gil, - Thanks a ton. No coupling facility from what I'm told, GRS via couple dataset (I'm used to MIM via CTC, so this is new to me too). I just want to prove periodically an IPL works, I know it's not necessary. I just haven't seen one at this site since I started here, and I want to compare the start-up to some timing issues I've see starting the disaster recovery machine. USS exists only to support TCPIP, NPF and MQ as necessary. - Greg
BTW when I shut down the test LPAR yesterday, z/OS didn't seem to recognize the hardware console as a z/OS console until I cause an interrupt after it's lost the other consoles. Is this normal? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
