RE: Remote IPL form telnet

["Don Cavaiani" <dcavaiani@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Lukas.

Actually, I don't know if I need to IPL?  I installed a couple of IBM
program product options - one shows *compatible the other *installed,
and there was no mention of needing to IPL that I noticed.

You mean pwrdwnsys restart(*yes)? That works flawlessly. But beware -
you won't notice if anything goes wrong during the IPL.

A good reason to buy a HMC - it allows you to do EVERYTHING from
wherever you are.
