Re: Strategies to Minimize IPLs

Just regular maintenance.. like:


Clear everyday the message outq
Review disk status
Review Qsysopr messages.

With our old AS400 it was necessary to do weekly IPL, the disk space was
75%, now that we are in the new M25 Power system the disk is at 50% so no
need for weekly IPL.

Hi Marc

My 2 cents...

We don't do weekly IPLs... only when necessary, running on iSeries Power
M25 with V5R4.

We are currently following the regimen of weekly IPLs what have long been
recommended. As we look at extending our work options outages on Sunday
are
becoming less acceptable to the business.



I am wondering if people on this list have recommendations and approaches
to
minimize or eliminate the need for IPLs.
