Chris, you have just proved my point about bad procedures: Using AUTOLOG, where is it documented how to do an *orderly* shutdown prior to IPL?!? In that case, how is it taken down???? Certainly not via CS IP (as you call it).
AUTOLOG might be how the FTPD appears in the system. Since it is not started via automation, of course it is not shut down via automation. So it would be one of those preventing system shutdown unless one has F bpxoinit,shutdown=forks in the procedure *somewhere*. That command is issued here way after the TCPIP address space(s) have gone. *I* don't consider this a clean shutdown! Best regards, Barbara ps: *This* installation has a very good relationship with the networks colleagues, they're certainly NOT adversaries! :-) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
