<dt><b>*NOWAIT</b></dt>
<dd>The system does not wait for vary on completion. The line is varied on asynchronously.

</dd>
</dl>
<p><b>Notes:</b>
</p>
<ol>
<li>When ONLINE(*YES) is used, specifying a wait time in the line description affects system IPL time. In such cases, system IPL time is influenced by the amount of time required to synchronously vary on the line or reach the wait-time value.
</li>
<li>The time required to vary on a line is the time it takes to:
<ul>
<li>Put tasks in place to manage the line
</li>
<li>Activate the communications I/O processor (IOP), including downloading the IOP model-unique Licensed Internal Code
</li>
<li>Establish the communications tasks and processes
</li>
</ul>
</li>
