Type the current date, followed by CR, in the following
format.
yy/mm/dd.
yy
Year; 00 through 99.
mm Month; 01 through
12.
dd Day; 01 through nn (nn is the number of
days in the month).
For deadstart levels 0,
1,
and 2, pressing CR without first
entering the date causes the system to assume the date
when the deadstart tape was created. For level
3
recovery
deadstart, pressing CR alone recovers both the previous
date and time (time entered during the last deadstart plus
time accumulated until this deadstart).
When the system has accepted the date entry, it displays
the following request for entry of the current time.
ENTER TIME HH.MM.SS.
Type the current time followed by CR in the following
format.
hh.mm.ss.
hh Hour; 00 through
23.
mm Minute; 00 through 59.
ss Second; 00 through 59.
For deadstart levels 0, 1, and 2, pressing CR without first
entering the time causes the system to set the time to
00.00.00.
If
CR alone was entered following the date
prompt on a level 3 recovery, this prompt to enter time
does not appear andthe previous time is assumed.
Normal job processing is initiated automatically by DSD
commands specified in the IPRDECK. If a level 1 or level
3 recovery deadstart is being performed, the system
recovers
all
jobs and active files and resumes normal
operation. immediately. However, if an initial deadstart
(level 0) or level 2 recovery deadstart is being performed,
job processing may not be initiated immediately. This
depends upon the length of time required to load the
system from the deadstart tape (progress can be monitored
on the right console screen).
If
tape loading is not
completed when the time entry is made, the DSD
commands specified in IPRDECK are displayed on the
lower portfon of the left screen and are flashed. In the
period of time until tape loading completes, one or more of
the DSD commands can be cleared by pressing the left
blank key (third key from right on top row of keyboard) as
many times as is necessary to clear the flashing entry.
Clearing a command prevents it from being executed when
tape loading completes. In this case, the commands
necessary to initiate job processing must be entered
manually from the console keyboard (refer to Initiating Job
Processing).

INITIATING JOB PROCESSING
Control point assignment is automatic under system
operation. Once deadstart is complete, processing
proceeds with little or no intervention on your part. As
mentioned previously, the DSD commands necessary to
initiate job processing are set up in the IPRDECK. If you
decide to clear the initial DSD commands, you must
manually initiate job processing by typing either
AUTO. or MAINTENANCE.
Following entry of the AUTO or MAINTENANCE command
during an initial (level
O)
deadstart, the deadstart
sequencing process begins. Deadstart sequencing causes
job processing to be suspended until
all
system files in the
default family are initialized. If a family other than the
default is entered, enter the command
X.ISF(FM=family)
family
Alternate family of devices.
For additional information concerning the ISF command
and deadstart sequencing, refer to the NOS System
Maintenance Reference Manual.
Normal job processing begi~ after the deadstart
sequencing job completes. If the AUTO command was
entered, the subsystems enabled in the IPRDECK are
automatically assigned to control points. Assuming
all
standard subsystems were set to be enabled, the system
would call them to specific control points as follows:
