Hello lists, <confession type=humbling> There is a bug in the SSISHUTD EXEC that is part of the new "Cloud Computing Cookbook." </confession>
<bummer type=major> I just shut down an SSI cluster by accident. </bummer> One of the new EXECs in the tar file of code associated with the book is SSISHUTD to make shutting down and optionally reIPLing much faster. I meant to type "ssishutd ?" but forgot the "?". So I got the prompt: Are you sure you want to SHUTDOWN the SSI cluster? (y/n) I answered "n" but the SSI still went down. :(( <bugfix type=quick> I got it back up and looked at the code. Line 88 of the SSISHUTD EXEC should be changed from this: If 'LEFT'(answer, 1) <> "Y" Then exitrc = 3 to this: If 'LEFT'(answer, 1) <> "Y" Then Exit 3 But there are other issues with return codes, so you should get the latest. I updated the .tgz file on http://www.vm.ibm.com/devpages/mikemac/CKB-VM62.tgz If you pulled the .tgz file between Jan 1 and about an hour ago, then you should replace it with the updated one, untar it, and be sure to replace all copies of SSISHUTD EXEC. I also updated the code in the appendix of the book and republished that. </bugfix> Sorry if this caused any inconvenience.
