When you execute this option, the server sends a message to users that the
server is going down and advising them to save their files and log out. The
server then stops the running process, updates the ABEND.LOG file, and
attempts to shut down and restart the computer.
The amount of time before the server shuts down and restarts is
determined by the SET parameter AUTO RESTART AFTER ABEND
DELAY TIME. You can set this value from 2 to 60 minutes. The default
is 2 minutes.
You can submit the ABEND.LOG file the the
abend log database (http://
abend.provo.novell.com/index.html)
at Novell to help you troubleshoot
the abend.

ABEND.LOG
This option appears if the abend was hardware-detected—that is, detected
by the processor. All hardware-detected abends have the words processor
exception in the abend message.
These abends include page faults, protection faults, and invalid op codes
stack overflows, double faults, etc. When this option is available, the
server has determined that it cannot return the process to a safe state, but
it does not need to shut down the server immediately to resolve the
problem. You might still need to shut down the operating system and
restart it at a later time.
When you execute this option, the server suspends the currently running
process and updates the ABEND.LOG file, but does not shut down the
