(What's the antonym for atavistic) data centers should not need to IPL for 
autumn fallback. This means reasonably current hardware with some kind of 
exo-OS clock (sysplex timer or STP) with current OS and middle-ware: CICS, DB2, 
automation product, job scheduler, etc. Or it could be personal discomfort with 
duplicate local time stamps. 

It might be worth a question to the data center manager as to why IPL is 
necessary. We are not planning on any overt action.

Atavistic applications.  I doubt there's any such residue in the OS.
