Re: Question - Your IPL Frequency

IBM CE's cringe at the thought of powering the box down because it does impact disk drives. Failures are most likely to occur following a shutdown.

We have talked about that. We are done with daily processing at 6:00 PM and 
don't need the system until 7:30 the next morning.  The boss was concerned
that the drives, if left to sit idle overnight might have issues, and more

Is there anyone out there trying to run a "green" operation that uses the
power schedule to power down at end of day and power it up the next
morning?  Or, if not the power schedule, some other method of achieving
