As it happens, I'm in day 2 of a three day disaster recovery test, and have
just had my first "funny".
I have just restored a full system save as per the ibm disaster recovery
instructions.  When i do a wrkcfgsts *dev, all my display stations, comms
lines, tape drives etc are there, but absolutely no printers!!!!!

They're not hard to re-create, but both the IBM engineer and me are
puzzled....
I'm restoring the nightly backup as i type; this has a savsecdta and a
savcfg, so i'm hoping it'll pick the printer device descriptions up of that.

Anyone else (whose tested their DR plan!) has this one?

Regards,

Stuart
