Initial Microcode Program Load.

I’m not sure that term is used much anymore, I usually just refer to LIC (Licensed Internal Code) load.

IMPL started from 8” diskette in the old S/38 days.

So, it's basically an IPL, a term being associated with AS/400 "ever since" (according to available documentation).

MTI are Maintained Temporary Indexes.

Same as most other indexes but the system creates and manages them for its own DB performance. It’s a good idea to review them and sometimes consider making them permanent. Not all are candidates for permanent indexes but you might find a few that should be.

I'm aware. I just did not know the term. Within this group, they're most often referred as "temporary index".
