Good point to remember. And it reminded me that I used to see both DASD and 
power problems highlighted when we'd use PWRDWNSYS RESTART(*NO). Actually 
shutting down and then physically restarting would sometimes make problems 
visible. I recall the old 9332s being notorious for failures under that 
scenario. Power regulators seemed more susceptible also.

Obviously this isn't done without a schedule, just in case.
