There is now a parm on the PWRDWNSYS command, CONFIRM, that allows this.I
think this was added at V5R3. It defaults to Environment variable, which*INTERACT.
the environment var isn't set itself by default. Therefore, you can
either
change the environment varilable to *INTERACT or change the command
default
for PWRDWNSYS command for the CONFIRM parameter and set that to

Subject: operators and PWRDWNSYS
List,
I am interested how other shops handle this issue. I want my operators to
beIf
able to perform an IPL at times but I am reluctant to give them
permissions
to execute PWRDWNSYS. The reason is concern that it will be accidental.
you key the command without prompting it begins an immediate controlled
shutdown with no IPL.
Is there a way to have the system force a confirmation (i.e. a "are you
sure?" type message) if the command is issued with no prompting? A system
value perhaps that controls this?
Who has permissions to issue PWRDWNSYS in your shop?
