Also a new issue in the whole RECOVERY vs. NORECOVERY debate is that I believe that User Defined Job Queues and their current configurations are retained after a RECOVERY start but eliminated by a NORECOVERY. This will probably result in a need for some careful thinking about the commands in SYSSTART's WARMSTART vs. COOLSTART command lists. G.
