RE: Testing an Autostart Job without an IPL

["Andy Nolen-Parkhouse" <aparkhouse@xxxxxxxxx>]

Michael,

The autostart job is designed to initiate when the subsystem starts.  If
you're trying to put it in production on a critical subsystem, you may
have trouble bringing that subsystem down and then back up.  If it's
possible, you could do your design and testing on a temporary subsystem,
then create your entry in production when your satisfied.  The final test
will only occur when that subsystem comes up for the first time.
