What sort of IPL did you request? HELP HCP961W (to see the Wait State 961 help) returns:
---<snip>--- (c) Copyright IBM Corporation 1990, 2008 HCP961W SYSTEM SHUTDOWN COMPLETE Explanation: The system has been brought to a successful orderly shutdown. System Action: The system enters a wait state (wait state code = 961). The system enters a wait state with a wait state code of 0FFF if a shut down was initiated by one of the following: o the issued SHUTDOWN command specified the WITHIN or BY option o the default shutdown timeout value defined by the SET SIGNAL SHUTDOWNTIME command or configuration statement was not zero and a SHUTDOWN command was issued without the IMMEDIATE option o a shut down signal was received from the hardware. Operator Response: No explicit action is necessary. You may now or at a later time reload for reinitialization of the CP system. You should normally specify a warm start; however, if errors are encountered in the warm start procedure, a cold start or a force start must be issued. ---<snip>--- Mike Walter Hewitt Associates The opinions expressed herein are mine alone, not my employer's.
