NOT > quiesced." No matter how many times I proofread before posting, I still can't seem to find all the typos. The first instance should have said "not quiesced". That is, if the timestamp is 09/17/2042 and "System was nondispatchable" is 00:00:00.000000, then the system was not quiesced. Otherwise, "System was nondispatchable" represents the amount of elapsed time for which the system was quiesced. Jim Mulder z/OS System Test IBM Corp.
