z/OS in this LPAR does just die.
Well, boo. That seems to be an integrity issue -- if that signal appears and if
the time remaining is non-zero, z/OS ought to at least TELL you that it
happened, even if it doesn't
In another discussion, the question of what z/OS does with a LPAR shutdown
signal (the hardware equivalent of SIGNAL SHUTDOWN) by default came up. Does
anyone know? Does it generate a message or trigger a START command or does it
just die horribly? Can it be trapped and used to initiate some
