The number of synonyms is irrelevant. The idea is to separate the application commands from the dangerous CP commands. Use quit or stop for all the others, it makes no difference.

Maybe SHUTDOWN should have required an additional parameter, i.e. SHUTDOWN CP or SHUTDOWN RSCS, etc. And yes I am one of those that has managed to get SHUTDOWN into the wrong place at the wrong time.. I even feel nervous typing it in this email... -----Original Message----- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Schuh, Richard Sent: Tuesday, November 06, 2007 12:19 PM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: Re: Changing privclass of SHUTDOWN I wholeheartedly agree about using SHUTDOWN for other than CP being a poor choice. Unfortunately, that has been the case for so long that it will be difficult to change it now.

Perhaps I'm a bad influence. For Fran--I think a major bad choice IBM made was to have SHUTDOWN be the end-stop-kill command for anything else other than VM. If I remember correctly, RSCS has a SHUTDOWN command __________________________________________________________________ << ella for Spam Control >> has removed VSE-List messages and set aside VM-List for me You can use it too - and it's FREE! http://www.ellaforspam.com
