Re: Go Save 21 and leave in restricted state

[Jan Megannon <jan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dee,

Alternatively you can create a new start-up program with the minimum
things to start up, or exclude the start-up of Interactive, TCP/IP, Host
servers and Qserver/Qsyswrk. Change sysval QSTRUPPGM just before doing
the Save 21. The start up of QCTL calls the startup program, so those
will not start. Compile it to a new name, leaving the current one 
intact. That way, should you experience any problem you will be able to 
IPL and change the system value to the current one. Just a back-door!

Just a thought,

Jan.
