Re: BRMS on a really slow system, but still...?

Yea, I agree, that’s unusual. What time did the startup program run? Did BRMS wait for that to finish before issuing that last completion message? I’ve never paid attention to it before since our monitoring software looks at the save start/finish times not the control group completion. I may have to add that to it.

However, I don't recall ever seeing an hour gap between these last two lines on DSPLOGBRM on a full system save.

It ain't the save media. Same VTL is used on other lpars on the same system.
