Thanks, Al. I'll forward this to my boss. Coming from you, she may change her mind. Thanks, Mark Mark D. Walter Senior Programmer/Analyst CCX, Inc. mwalter@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.ccxinc.com Al Barsa <barsa@barsaconsu lting.com> To Sent by: Midrange Systems Technical midrange-l-bounce Discussion s@xxxxxxxxxxxx <midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx> cc 04/27/2005 04:43 Subject PM Re: GO Save Option 21 Please respond to Midrange Systems Technical Discussion <midrange-l@midra nge.com> The applying of PTFs *PERM is just something to save a very little bit of time. During the slow CISC days, when people were complaining about slow install times, IBM came up with this recommendation. Likely not worth the effort any more.

We're planning our upgrade to V5R3, and I always like to get a 21 save before. Just in case. Plus my boss insists on applying all of the PTFs *perm before the upgrade. I don't think it's necessary any more, but I do what I'm told. Thanks, Mark Mark D.

So, you could just sign on to the system console on Friday before you leave the office and tell it to wait. If that doesn't do the job, you can also edit the source code. Use RTVCLSRC on program QMNSAVE to get the source code, then you can add delays or whatever you need. (I wouldn't actually change the IBM-supplied object, but you could make your own copy and use that...) I don't know if it'll work as a batch job, or if it needs to be interactive -- but, at least for us, the system console can just be left on over the weekend, so we can set it up with a DLYJOB or two and then I don't have to make a special trip into the office. --- Scott Klement http://www.scottklement.com On Wed, 27 Apr 2005 MWalter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > At V5R2, can GO SAVE option 21 be submitted as a batch job to QCTL?
