Local fix
Problem summary

Problem conclusion
Temporary fix
Comments
This change provides two new files, XCATEXIT SAMPLE and ZHCPEXIT SAMPLE. These two sample files reside on the MAINT 400 minidisk and provide sample clean up commands for the XCAT and ZHCP service machines. To activate the exits, copy them from a filetype of SAMPLE to a filetype of PL. Make changes to the PL files which satisfy your requirements for clean up. If the initialization steps for XCAT or ZHCP find the PL filetype on the MAINT 400 minidisk, the exits are run at the beginning of the initialization process in the XCAT and ZHCP virtual machines.
