APAR OY36587 on SP4.1.0 (around 1991) added support for a System Control
Program Initiated Reset. When MVS loads a disabled wait state (for
example, the 0A2 wait state which results from VARY XCF OFF), MVS issues a Diagnose
instruction to initiate the reset and load the disabled wait (assuming
the processor environment supports this function, which is indicated
by SCCBIRIN in IHASCCB).
How funny! I was just going to suggest that someone modify MVS to
initiate the RESET just before it loads the disabled WAIT. Glad to see
it's already been done!
Now, if someone can just figure out a way to inform my SE/HMC that there
is no need to record the _intended and deliberate_ disabled wait as a
hardware failure, I'll be happy. Deleting "hardware failure" false
alarms every time we IPL an LPAR on our z800 is tiring. Has this already
been addressed with the latest and greatest gear?
