Automatic save at IPL

[bmegenity@xxxxxxxxxx]

Forgive me if this is covered in the archives. By the way, how do I get   
to them to see what has transpired before? We are trying to perform a   
full, unattended system save every Sunday morning when we IPL. We are   
running into problems with the program wanting to be in the restricted   
state, which side of the console we are using, which sign the moon is in   
(probably not but it seems that way). Can anyone give me a nice, neat   
list of things to do to get this to operate correctly. We are on a 510 at   
V3R7 and using an Exabyte Mammoth 8mm tape drive, with a 20/40gb capacity   
(I think).

By the way, we have had excellent luck with this drive except for the   
little quirk that when you load software from an 8mm tape that is not of   
their particular brand, you MUST clean and restart the tape drive before   
you can read another tape. This is a design "feature".
