What I need is a test that what is entered only contains the digits
0123456789.
Anybody have a nice quick way to test for a valid whole number between 1
and 9? Testing for values 1 and 9 are immaterial to this
question and are already tested.
I thought DATATYPE(number,W) would do it
then it is good
Else it is bad

Having done lots of SHUTDOWN REIPL with a new CPLOAD MODULE, I highly
doubt that is the cause.
Are you sure they are not doing: SHUTDOWN RIPL ucb
I have seen this on some CNR tests because you are IPLing using a
different volume where the checkpoint area is on a different area of the
volume.
