Hi Berry,

The owner is MAINT i guess, because i'm doing all these editing things
with MAINT user. I found the file PROFILE EXEC, in TCPMAINT user area
(sorry, i dont know the big iron's terminology, i found it with "filel
* * *" command with TCPMAINT user) which runs Linux guests
automatically during IPL. The default setting is Minidisk100, but if i
change it to 102, my all guests will try to IPL from 102, and this is
not what i want.
Because i have 14 guests and 8 of them IPL from 102, 6 of them IPL
from 100. I need to change this file (or script) somehow, but i dont
know how to do it.

Regards
