Well - I'm not looking to reipl -- that's just a shutdown -r now .. I want the userid 'logged off' - the guest control blocks out of z/VM memory - and then for it to come up via XAUTOLOG or whatever method would reload the guest back into memory with the current directory info as when you XAUTOLOG...
