Reboot Using Changes From MODPARAMS
I.E. I've changed MIN_GBLSECTIONS in MODPARAMS, and need to reboot, but don't want to use SAVE_FEEDBACK as the system has only been up a few hours.
Thanks, Rob.

Re: Reboot Using Changes From MODPARAMS
I agree with Wim. While it is obviously possible to reproduce it here, the best answer (by definition) is to use the HELP within AUTOGEN.
AUTOGEN allows the beginning and ending phase to be specified.

Re: Reboot Using Changes From MODPARAMS
If you use GETDATA GENPARAMS it will re-use the last feedback and mix it with the new MODPARAMS settings. This is what you need I think. If the last feedback was valid.
AUTOGEN can IMO not be used to apply only the modparams settings.
I normally apply them by hand if I don't want a feedback.

Re: Reboot Using Changes From MODPARAMS
I tested it and found ACP_DIRCACHE decreased from 352 to 196. Nothing about it in the modparams file.

Re: Reboot Using Changes From MODPARAMS
should do the right thing as it it will use the current feedback file if it is valid and not make a new one.
Do check the report file and then reboot.

Re: Reboot Using Changes From MODPARAMS
I agree with Wim, at least if my understanding of what you are asking is correct, GETDATA would seem to be the place to start.
If you want to be cautious, you may want to stop short of the actual REBOOT and check the new parameters against the prior ones to guard against surprises.

Re: Reboot Using Changes From MODPARAMS
"if feedback is suspect, autogen does not use feedack" (help).
How does autogen detect a suspect feedback ?

Re: Reboot Using Changes From MODPARAMS
CHECK_FEEDBACK checks :
uptime must be > 24h
must have been taken < 30 days ago
That's all.

Re: Reboot Using Changes From MODPARAMS
check the report file here and then
@SYS$SYSTEM:SHUTDOWN 0 SHUTDOWN NO YES LATER YES NONE
If you want to skip the check of report file (not recommended)
@SYS$UPDATE:AUTOGEN GETDATA REBOOT CHECK_FEEDBACK

Re: Reboot Using Changes From MODPARAMS
@SYS$UPDATE:AUTOGEN GETDATA TESTFILES CHECK_FEEDBACK
Review AGEN$PARAMS.REPORT for warnings and changes.
@SYS$UPDATE:AUTOGEN SETPARAMS
Reboot when convenient.
I prefer not to run the SETPARAMS phase until I've seen the report file since I've been known to make typos once in a while.
