Q.
Dear Ab-end: I am having a problem where the SET AUTO RESTART AFTER ABEND server console setting won't stick. I'd like it to be 1 (active). I have set it in the STARTUP.NCF file as appropriate but in Monitor (as well as an actual ABEND condition) it acts like 0--you get the familiar "Press X to quit" screen. Any ideas? -- Billy Binary in Boloxi

Dear Binary: Enter the NetWare debugger (press Left-shift+Right-shift+Alt+Esc). Type the following:
dd autoRestartAfterAbend 4
if the value is 0 change it with:
cd autoRestartAfterAbend
to 1. Make sure you enter a '.' to end the change process. If the value is already set to zero, make sure that the SET parameter Set Developer Option=OFF. Repeat these instructions to set the value to 1.
