Use this command to perform an initial program load (IPL) on a 3705 control
unit. You can also use this command to:
- Associate a load module with a 3705 control unit without performing an
IPL.
- Run diagnostics on a 3705 control unit.
- Turn on or turn off the automatic IPL option for a 3705 control
unit. The automatic IPL option automatically performs an IPL
on a 3705 control unit when a critical error occurs. Enter the Z3705
DMP command to specify whether or not a dump should also be performed.
Requirements and Restrictions
None.
Format
- I
- turns on the automatic IPL option for a 3705 control unit.
- R

- BP
- forces an IPL on a 3705 control unit when the control unit is online and
the TPF system is in CRAS state or higher.
- NL
- associates a load module with a 3705 control unit without performing an
IPL.
- Note:
- If you specify the NL parameter for an automatic IPL, the previous load
module is associated with the specified 3705 control unit without physically
performing an IPL. Any existing sessions are cleaned up.
- DG
- performs diagnostics on a 3705 control unit by loading and running the
initial test program before loading the load modules. This takes
approximately 30 seconds.
- DB
- forces diagnostics to be performed on a 3705 control unit.
