Startup Script in AS400

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am new to AS400 and DB2 platform. We do weekly IPL (server shutdown) every sunday. Then, after restarting, the SAP instances used to start automatically.

But, now a particular instance is not started automatically after IPL. I think there should be some startup scripts to be given to do this happen. This started happening from a month before.

If anyone can please help me on this, it would be greatful.

Thanks,

hi Sailesh

Check the value of the parameter QSTRUPPGM by doing a "wrksysval". If its QGPL/QSTRUP(<library>/<program>), then check the contents of the program QSTRUP using "wrkmbrpdm" and see where exactly in this program the code is there to bring up the systems after an IPL?

Most probably, you will have to check the names of the kernel libraries, they are being called to start the systems...most probably some kernel name got changed...and hence its not starting the system.

Let me know if u need further help.
