Vulnerability discussion

If procedures for performing system shutdowns are not in place, it is extremely difficult to ensure overall data and operating system integrity.

Check content

Have the System Administrator validate that System Shutdown Documentation exists for all partitions that are defined on the system. a) Using the Hardware Management Console, do the following: 1) Access CPC Images Group displays. (This will list the LPARs.) 2) Compare the partition names listed on the Partition Page to validate that System Shutdown procedures exist for each entered on the Central Processor Complex Domain/LPAR Names. If System Shutdown Procedures do not exist for each partition, this is a FINDING.

Fix text

Create or refine procedures for performing system shutdowns for each partition.

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
