No, I do not use MAINT CF1 for my production system; the Parm disk hasn't moved in years. It was even over-allocated so that it would not need to be moved because of space problems.I specified the MODULE parameter on the SHUTDOWN REIPL command. That is when I learned about that handy parameter.

I tried to APAR it, but got a WAD.. 2009/11/16 Schuh, Richard <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> It does reread the system config file. Several years ago, we had a problem of it picking up the old module. The way we got around that was to specify the MODULE CPLOAD parameter. If you do that, it will work regardless of whether you have changed the CP. I imagine it probably will work without the parameter; however, I haven't tested it in the years since, so I am only speculating.
