I think that there's an effort underway inside IBM do add this Be specific in what you're asking for. In my terminology the thing you describe here is that it allows the systems programmer to save the NSS when he decides is the time to do. The phrase "to save itself" may be taken differently by some people with other background. It might mean define a Linux server with CP class E and let root write a '1' into a /proc entry that makes the Linux kernel / driver issue the CP commands to define the segment and save it. So that means it is done while the network is still up, and possibly without checking whether there still area a lot of pending purge segments filling up spool... Sometimes it makes me sleep better when we don't have wind from the East... ;-) Rob -- Rob van der Heij rvdheij @ gmail.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
