Well yes , but ....it has worked for 25 years , except once or twice when OPS forgot and that's what screwed us, and it also appears the nightly job checklist was not consulted, ie confirm that the CICS came to a normal EOJ before you start anything new
I had been playing around with a thought that to make damn sure all the ducks were aligned
CICS gone to EOJ, CICS logs copied, set the parameter and at startup time have some IF's

If you have then copied the CICS logs to a backup and then initialized then does it impact a warm start.

At month end CICS11 is shutdown and a CIC11R is started.
CICS11R is pseudo DL/I read only (no update PSB's or applications), separate Databases and DFHJ01A/B, but uses the original DFHTEMP, RSD etc

We use START=AUTO.

That will do a WARM start if CICS was shutdown normally, or EMER if CICS came down abnormally. 

If I need a cold start done, we release the following job and bring CICS backup.

* $$ JOB JNM=COLDPROD,DISP=L,PRI=3,CLASS=8,USER='TOM DUERBUS GENERATED
* $$ LST CLASS=J,DEST=(,MAINT)                                        
// JOB COLDPROD  SETUP PROD FOR COLD START                            
/* ID STATEMENT SUPPRESSED */                                        
// OPTION LOG                                                         
// SETPARM XNCPU=''                                                   
// EXEC PROC=$COMVAR,XNCPU                                            
// EXEC DTRSETP,PARM='CPUVAR&XNCPU;;SET XMODEF8=COLD'                 
/*                                                                    
/&                                                                    
* $$ EOJ                                                     GENERATED

We handle it with FAQS/ASO. COLD start always, but then we don't have  DL/I.
