I installed a patch on my 987 over the weekend (MPE5.5, PP6).
I did the typical UPDATE followed by a START NORECOVERY. Everything
went as I expected.
But when I brought the system back up, I noticed that only the STARTUP
module of the SYSSTART.PUB.SYS had executed. Checking the
documentation ("System Startup, Configuration, and Shutdown Reference
Manual" - both hard copy and CD-Rom versions; page 3-16 of the hard
copy), states that ANY reboot will execute the STARTUP module of
SYSSTART and a START NORECOVERY will execute the COOLSTART
module. Well, the COOLSTART module did not execute because it is
supposed to stream a job that starts up networking, etc., which I know
did not stream.
Any ideas?
I can say that the one problem I found was that SYSSTART was on LDEV
2 instead of LDEV 1 (as noted in the documentation pg 3-16). But to me,
if that were a real problem, then SYSSTART would not have run. If MPE
can find SYSSTART to do the STARTUP even if it is not on LDEV1, then
it should find a subsequent module in the same file. (I have moved
it to LDEV1.)
