Do you have a "local" address for yourself via OSA-ICC,9074, or something else? We have been known to deal with the long distance and busy ops this way: "shutdown reipl iplparms cons=0315" where 315 is my "local" session and then once you get the sapl screen put prompt cons=0315 So you have the whole thing yourself? When done, "xautolog operator on nnn" or just another "shutdown reipl" with the defaults. Marcy

Having to involve operators who are 3000 miles away, and normally very busy, in the process is sometimes difficult (paperwork) and time consuming. Having the capability of entering NOAUTO would sometimes be very convenient. Regards, Richard Schuh
