Re: Savsys 21 (was Probably very easy, Newbie Question)

Since the 400 went to 64 bit addressing, you no longer routinely IPL your
system.  For just about everybody, IPLing when you PTF or do a new release
is sufficient.

I do hear from some people that IPLs clear up disk usage, and if that's
true, it's likely the fault of a poor system design.  When I have noticed
this trend, the disk utilization is usually reused immediately after
production work stops, gets to a specified point and stays there.

I do a 21 every other weekend on both my 400s. I know this may be overkill
as my
data libs on the production box are backed up daily but it only takes a
couple
hours and gives me the warm fuzzies.  I do ptfs, ipls, and breakfast
sometimes
on the same days and sometimes will do an 'extra 21 save' if there has been
alot
happening on a box.  Now if my webserver ever starts getting any hits on a
sunday morning,  I'll have to explore other strategies...
