Re: IPL Processing Sequence

Rich,

It sounds a bit like your asking about the TCP/IP servers. If you need to control that use CHGIPLA to stop TCP from starting with QSYSWRK/QUSRWRK start and then start TCP/IP and the balance of the TCP servers manually in the start up program per your needs.

A discussion of the IPL steps from LIC to OS can be found at the Info center under Systems Management, Work Management, Reference, IPL System reference codes. Until the system is at a point where the the start up program runs there's not much you can do with it unless you manually IPL, then you have a small amount more control... but I sense the start up program is what your looking for.

Does anyone know where I can find a description of the sequence of steps
and when they get processed during an IPL? I have some OS maintenance I
want to do during the QSTRUP program, some of which affects exit point
registration. I'm finding that some server functions are getting started
before I can complete what I need to do in the QSTRUP and the results are
not always pretty. It would help to know what is happening during the IPL
at each stage and what triggers each event to happen.
