CP SIGNAL SHUTDOWN causes the standard Linux shutdown process to be executed,
through
the init scripts.
If the software you mention contains quiesce or shutdown commands in the init
scripts,
it will be executed with SIGNAL SHUTDOWN.
The big question then is of the time frame. Is 90 seconds
Thanks! Because we have many applications and softwares on linux, maybe
some of them have pending stop, or maybe some have problem to fail stop.
Even though I set a big timer, it is possible that system shutdown is prior
to software's normal stop. How to solve this situation?
Best Regards!

*up to* more than 9 hours, right? If the machine shuts down in two
minutes for example, won't it halt and signal back to z/VM that it's done?
(whether it then gets logged off is another matter)

We just moved from 5 minutes (SET SIGNAL SHUTDOWN 300) to 10 minutes (SET

SIGNAL SHUTDOWN (if configured in the Linux guest) will run the equivalent of
shutdown -h now, so as long as you provide the Linux guest time enough to
execute a normal shutdown, it's safe to do that. 90 seconds may not be enough

Alan,
When you add up all of the RESERVE memory for all LPARS does it need to add up
to or below the amount of available unused memory or can each LPAR be defined
the max amount of memory that is available and unused?

If you want to allow any LPAR to grab all of the unused memory, then
you can set the reserve memory to the available unused memory in all
LPARs. What is actually available will show up as STANDBY storage in
z/VM and the rest as RESERVED. Note that the amount of STANDBY
displayed may be the same
Jeff,
That's good news. The behavior you are seeing with writes working only beyond
the VOL1/HDR1/HDR2 label is likely due to the 9840C volser std label
protection feature being enabled in the drive setup.

PDF is part of ISPF, which is a separate product. It's not part of the base VM

One idea (from my memory): Use EXTRACT /CURSOR/ to see if
the cursor is past the first character of the cmdline. If so
then READ CMDLINE should put the cmdline data on the stack
so you can PARSE PULL it.
When in doubt about how something like READ actually works,
use the HELP command.
