An hour or so ago, one of our z/OS systems decided it had enough of life and re-IPLed itself.
In the HMC hardware log we see this: A logically partitioned mode event occurred. Select details for information. Selecting Details gives: A program directed re-IPL has been initiated for partition XXXX. First thought was that someone had done a V XCF,SYSNAME=XXXX,REIPL but that would have generated a wait state record in the hardware log, And in any case I have checked all of the other 13 systems in the sysplex, and there is no evidence of this happening (and in fact, a CMDEXIT would have prevented this from another system) There are no clues in this system’s syslog as to what triggered this. Nothing in LOGREC either. On the other systems we can see the usual messages indicating a system has left (ISG378I, MIM saying a system may be inoperative, etc.) but nothing else useful. Has anybody else experienced this? This is a z/10 (2098-Z03) - I don’t know what level of microcode. All 14 sysplex members being at z/OS 1.13, mostly RSU1308 or higher.
