Thanks, Holger. One of the things I'm really intrigued by is the possibility of moving a tape drive between partitions programmatically. As you say, SSH to HMC opens up a world of capabilities.

Besides the SSH > HMC capabilities (i like Larrys Idea but it is rather complex for first step),
the simple way to safeguard PWRDWNSYS is a small exit CL program which sends
a break message to QSYSOPR waiting for a special response (e.g. "yesiwill")
just to avoid a quick GO POWER, 4
The other thing is: using SSH to send commands to other systems from IBM i can give you millions
of possibilities: control HMC, control Storage, control SVC etc...

Okay, now I get to really show my ignorance. You say "reach out to the HMC". This seems to imply that a program running on IBM i can execute a command on the HMC. This would make sense, and would be very cool. I found a document that explains the process in detail, but it does seem to rely heavily on SSH, an area where I'm not exactly an expert. (I know that's a large field, but be nice, it's the holidays.)

So, is this document, though a bit long in tooth, still what I need to do? Because it then opens up some other very important capabilities.
