Asking ChatGPT to write a program

ChatGPT:  "Write a program in the IBM CL programming language to end all subsystems then wait one hour and start them again."

Response:

********************************************************
IBM CL (Control Language) is the control language used on IBM iSeries (formerly AS/400) systems. To end all subsystems, wait for an hour, and then start them again, you can create a simple CL program with the following commands:

CL

/* Your CL program to end all subsystems, wait, and start them again */

/* End all subsystems */
ENDSBS SBS(*ALL) OPTION(*IMMED)

/* Wait for an hour (3600 seconds) */
DLYJOB DLY(3600)

/* Start all subsystems */
STRTUSRSBS SBSD(QSYS/QSPL) /* Start the system printer subsystem first, if needed */
STRTUSRSBS SBSD(*ALL)

Please note that executing the ENDSBS command with the *IMMED option will end all active subsystems immediately, potentially terminating running jobs without warning. Make sure to consider the impact of ending all subsystems before running this program in a production environment.

To create and run this CL program, follow these steps:

    Sign on to your IBM iSeries system with an account that has authority to run CL commands.
    Use a text editor to create a new source member. Save it with a .CLLE extension (e.g., MYCLPROGRAM.CLLE).
    Place the above CL code into the source member and save it.
    Open a command line on your system and execute the following commands:

CL
CRTCLPGM PGM(MYLIB/MYCLPROGRAM) SRCFILE(MYLIB/QCLSRC) REPLACE(*YES)
CALL PGM(MYLIB/MYCLPROGRAM)

Replace MYLIB with the name of the library where you want to create the program.

Keep in mind that this program assumes you have the appropriate authority to end and start subsystems on your IBM iSeries system. Always exercise caution when performing system-level tasks. It's recommended to test this program in a non-production environment before running it in a live system.
