Hi Zoltan,

> It is now shutting down normally.

This includes when you start the server normally, as a background process?
Interesting... at this point I don't have anything more I can offer. If you
encounter this again, I would say to go ahead and open a PMR. It is
possible that collecting the stack traces for one (next) occurrence will be
sufficient. We can better facilitate information exchange through the
formal support process.

Meanwhile, if I hear anything more (such as a confirmed APAR number), I'll
post here.
