10.1 I’m trying to set up a system to do a AUTOBOOT with START NORECOVERY. I found the AUTOBOOT flag at the ISL prompt and set that to ON. I created a file called autoboot.pub.sys and put "START NORECOVERY" in it, but it does not seem to work. I get the message that the system could not find the file. What am I doing wrong?
Gilles Schipper provided the following procedure:
Log on as MANAGER.SYS, and do as follows:
STEP 1
:EDITOR
/A
1 START NORECOVERY#@
2 //
...
/C "#" TO '13 IN 1 <<changes # to a CR >>
/C "@" TO '10 IN 1 <<changes @ to LF >>
/KEEP AUTOBOOT
/EXIT
STEP 2
:SYSGEN
SY
AAUTO FILE=AUTOBOOT.PUB.SYS TYPE=DISC
HOLD
E
KE
EXIT
STEP 3
Create new slt tape
STEP 4
At ISL prompt,
ISL > AUTOBOOT ON
STEP 5
Boot from SLT and UPDATE CONFIG
You MUST use the UPDATE CONFIG option to complete the task successfully. Failure to do so will not enable you to utilize the AUTOBOOT feature.
