That confirmation screen bit me the other Sunday...

I wondered how come the system hadn't come up an hour after I issued
the PWRDWNSYS.

(I have since added the envvar to suppress it...)

I still recall when Simon had originally, humorously described his
views on a confirmation ever becoming an option for that command. He
almost certainly had implemented the environment variable for *SYS or
changed the command default on any release the CONFIRM parameter had
since been implemented and defaulted to *ENVVAR. Enjoy... :-)
