Otherwise, there would be no system left active to see the "reply down" message to begin with. So I think you are safe. I doubt our operations ever SYSTEM RESETs the last system out of a plex here either. Even if there was an outstanding RESERVE, who would it hurt since no other systems are sharing at that point. The only way it could hurt is if the last system down was not the first system up in the sysplex (which is SOP, and if it wasn't operations would be more confused by the messages when they IPL the wrong system first) and if a volume that has RESERVEs issued against it is shared outside the scope of the sysplex (we have one volume that falls in that category for HSC/VTCS).
