Lots of people had there 2cents worth so I might as well give mine. A max units offline in SYSPARMS would kill this forever and surely take 10/20 minutes to code.
Does anyone ever ask IBM to do anything these days or do we just sit back and take what we are given? -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Field, Alan C. Sent: 19 October 2007 15:14 To: [email protected] Subject: VARY too many devices offline Yesterday someone issued an RO *ALL,V 708-7014,OFFLINE which led to a number of unplanned IPLs. Now mgmt wants to implement a fingerchecker. I searched CBT for a command exit that might ask something like "you really want to vary 26,000 devices offline?" How do others shops handle this, have you got an exit you'd be willing to share before we re-invent the wheel.
