Re: I'm looking at the files being journaled . . . .

Additionally if one were to get really picky (as pointed out by Frank Soltis in a COMMON presentation) the OS is really the LIC which straddles the virtualization layer (TIMI) between hardware and the software just above it. IBM i is the human interface and a large group of applications that live above that.

Too deep in the weeds for most except true computer scientists.

TIMI = Technology Independent Machine Interface.

Actually it's two steps.

LIC load (C200xxxx to C600xxxx) level would equate to IMPL
C900xxxx would imply IPL (Initial Program Load) for the IBM i system.

You are correct, they tend to get lumped together as IPL. (Just being
picky about terminology)

Thanks for explaining. I can't remember to have read the term IMPL until this very day.

:wq! PoC
