last time I had *that* problem, (a couple of years ago), I fixed it by putting an "initsqa 0500k 1000k" in the loadXX. I'll try that next sunday. thanks a lot. I'm sorry I didn't think of that on my own .... and not bothered the listers here who were all so kind as to respond THANK YOU TO ONE AND ALL WHO RESPONDED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Gibney, Dave Sent: Tuesday, 03 November, 2009 02:27 PM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Re: problem w/ data stream to System Operator console at ipl Does the HMC system messages icon start to blink?
