► You should see the text in the top half of the following example. Modify it as follows.
a. You can safely delete the Address Command line.
b. Add a line to start the TCPIP user ID using the XAUTOLOG command and keep two
statements that start the VSWITCH cloners.
c. Add a line to logoff of AUTOLOG1 when the EXEC is complete. There is no need to keep
that virtual machine running as its sole purpose is to run the PROFILE EXEC.
Before:

'CP XAUTOLOG VMSERVS'
'CP XAUTOLOG VMSERVU'

'cp logoff' /* logoff when done */
► Save your changes with the FILE subcommand

When your z/VM system IPLs, the TCP/IP stack should now come up automatically (as long
as you do not specify the notautolog parameter at IPL time).
4.5.1 Renaming the TCPIP configuration file
It is recommended that you change the name of the main TCPIP configuration file from
PROFILE TCPIP to TCPIP, where is the name of your new z/VM
system. This is to avoid the possibility that the PROFILE TCPIP file will be overwritten when
applying maintenance.
► Logon to TCPMAINT. The PROFILE TCPIP file is on the TCPMAINT 198 disk which is accessed
as the D disk.
► Make a backup copy the original PROFILE TCPIP, then rename it to TCPIP
(where is POKSND61 in this example). When the TCPIP service machine
starts, it will search for this file before the file PROFILE TCPIP.
