I see no reason and no negative impact, on the contrary: if you keep it running, you can see what's happening after JES and Syslog have stopped. The same applies to activities before JES2 starts.

I found that automation is setup to vary operlog offline just before stopping JES2. I was trying to find a reference in the FMs recommending this. But no success. Why would we do this? If operlog is stopped, then we would loose all hardcopy messages from the time JES was brougt down until the system is brought doen (V XCF,....,OFFLINE), right? What (negative) impact is there if we don't stop operlog? -- Peter Hunkeler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ******************************************************** For information, services and offers, please visit our web site: http://www.klm.com.
