Re: What's Considered Long for an IPL?

Thanks for your reply Jim.I don't know whether there were PTFs to
apply. I'm at home so I don't know what's on the panel. This was a
pwrdwnsys and power up using the GO POWER menu. I think it was on 01
B N but can't be sure.

If QINTER isn't up by 2015 hours, I'll probably have to drive in. I'm
lucky it's only 20 minutes or so.

That sounds too long, but need to ask:

were any ptfs loaded to apply at ipl?
processor check light?
what's on the panel?
any disk activity lights blinks (and not just a polling occassional blink)
Is this *full or *Sys ipl?
Was the machine in "01  B  N" when started?

Subject: What's Considered Long for an IPL?

I scheduled a power down for 1630 and a power up for 1705; and it's
now 1925 and QINTER still isn't active.  Is it normal for some IPLs to
take this long?  It's been over a year since the last IPL and we're on
V5R4M0.
