<div><p>When the system performs an IPL, the Licensed Internal Code verifies
various internal switches to see if the system was correctly powered down.</p>
<p>Only the successful completion of the Power Down System (PWRDWNSYS) command
causes the system to be correctly powered down. For any other type of shutdown,
the i5/OS™ program
considers the next IPL to be abnormal. The Licensed Internal Code considers
the IPL to be normal if the system saves main storage and completes the power-down
sequence successfully. If neither power-down technique completes normally,
the Licensed Internal Code runs various recovery functions on the next IPL.</p>
<p>When an abnormal IPL occurs, the i5/OS program performs additional recovery
functions. In an attended IPL, you can control some of these functions. In
an unattended IPL that is caused by the Power restore IPL system value (QPWRRSTIPL)
or a timed IPL, the system can only use the values that are currently set.</p>
<p>If the Power Down System (PWRDWNSYS) command is run while power is supplied
by the Battery Backup Unit (BBU) or uninterruptible power supply, the system
delays writing any job logs until the next IPL. The system handles this type
of PWRDWNSYS so that the amount of processing is minimized. The system does
not perform an IPL while operating on the BBU.</p>
<p>You can perform an IPL on the system if utility power is off and the system
is operating on an uninterruptible power supply. This does not apply for a
timed or remote IPL. Only a manually initiated IPL is allowed when utility
power is interrupted.</p>
