Some other command actions c an also interfere with daily maintenanc e when
certain qualifiers are used in the command, or under c ertain circumstance s. For
example, certain “te st” commands, when used with the modifier “con tinuously”,
could potentially inter fere with daily maintenance. However, suc h command
actions are not used typically by customer administrators doing routine
administration, and are less likely to d isrupt daily maintenanc e routines than are
the add, change, duplicate, remove, and set command ac tions.
Incomplete Command Time-out
A time -out f eatur e has b een a dde d to t he MAI NTENANC E-RELATED SYSTEM
PARAMETERS form (accessed by the command change system parameters
maintenance). This feature improves the operation of daily mai ntenance by
allowing maintenance routines to run that mig ht otherwise not run. It also helps to
prevent the loss of translations that were not saved by the save translation
command, and were also not sa ved because d aily maintenance was prevented
from running prior to the system reset. Hig hlights of the feature include:
■Options for blank, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 hours (t he default is 2 hours)

prescribed tim e (except for the “b lank” option)
■The feature applies to all logins, regard less of type (init, dadmi n, craft,

or maintenance user
