Geez, I never got to that point. My head is spinning! Now you got me wondering, does the OP still wants the volser offline during and AFTER the IPL or not? With IODF or with a COMMNDxx or IEACMDxx or just type it in on a console? >>As always, while useful and handy, dynamic settings + commands are there for >>emergencies only. >I disagree. Sorry, Tom, with my utmost respect to you, for production systems, I agree to disagree. No disrespect to you, please. For sandboxes, here I agree with you. In fact this is what one of my colleagues did during a botched upgrade on a sandbox. "they" forgot to include a new Linklist on a sandbox, but cannot IPL because tests on a system were still going on and time was running out... As previously said, if you try out those commands, you had better be ready to IPL... >However, they must be used properly. Tom, here I agree 100% with you. For that, I'm behind to you. At least I'm not alone! Thanks Tom for your nice comments!
