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.
