We use a job schedule entry with the PWRDWNSYS command.  It runs every Sunday 
at 4am.  The command we use is:
PWRDWNSYS OPTION(*IMMED) RESTART(*YES *FULL)

You can create the job schedule by entering the command WRKJOBSCDE and pressing 
enter.  Press F6 to give it a name and establish the time and day to run.  
Where it says "command to run" enter PWRDWNSYS and press F4 to be prompted for 
the various options.  Enter the frequency as *WEEKLY, the date as *NONE, the 
day as *SUN, or whatever day you want, the time as 040000, or whatever time you 
want it to run. You can press F10 to additional parameters or press enter to 
take the defaults.  

We use job schedule entries for a lot of our recurring functions, using 
commands, programs or CL programs in the "Command to run" area.

Subject: Performance Issue


We are experiencing seveier performance issues with our system some for
obvious reasons (size of box).  I'm new to the 400 so no laughing, I
have never done and IPL on this server.  I was told by a tech at MAPICS
to do a monthly IPL  and do a recapture of space.  

 

Is this standard practice?  Will it improve performance?  We are looking
at cleaning up some files that have grown very large.  I'm assuming we
would do the recapture after cleaning these up.  Thanks for any
assistance.
