I sent the post below to the FLEX-ES list but I have copied it here just in case anyone has any bright ideas.
When we run large ftp or jdbc app we get the following sequence on errors on our z/OS 1.4 system and the adapter invariable shuts down after recovering a few times - EZZ4310I ERROR: CODE=80100044 REPORTED ON DEVICE ETH1. DIAGNOSTIC CODE: 00 EZZ4309I ATTEMPTING TO RECOVER DEVICE ETH1 IST1578I SOFT INOP DETECTED FOR IUTL0E20 BY ISTTCCTE CODE = 102 EZZ4314I INITIALIZATION COMPLETE FOR DEVICE ETH1, LINK ETH1LINK IST1578I SOFT INOP DETECTED FOR IUTL0E20 BY ISTTCCTE CODE = 102 EZZ4310I ERROR: CODE=80100044 REPORTED ON DEVICE ETH1.

DIAGNOSTIC CODE: 00 IST1578I SOFT INOP DETECTED FOR IUTL0E20 BY ISTTCCTE CODE = 102 EZZ4309I ATTEMPTING TO RECOVER DEVICE ETH1 EZZ4314I INITIALIZATION COMPLETE FOR DEVICE ETH1, LINK ETH1LINK IST1578I SOFT INOP DETECTED FOR IUTL0E20 BY ISTTCCTE CODE = 102 EZZ4310I ERROR: CODE=80100044 REPORTED ON DEVICE ETH1. DIAGNOSTIC CODE: 00 EZZ4309I ATTEMPTING TO RECOVER DEVICE ETH1 EZZ4305I UNABLE TO RECOVER DEVICE ETH1 EZZ4307I REASON: ERROR ENCOUNTERED AFTER REACTIVATION EZZ4315I DEACTIVATION COMPLETE FOR DEVICE ETH1 We also have a z/OS 1.2 instance which displays similar symptoms but which invariably manages to go throuigh recovery enough times and not shut down the interface. I say this because the messages might indicate a hardware error but both instances have a different interface. This leads me to think that it is either a Flex-es problem or a configuration problem that I have got wrong with both instances of tcpip. I have checked all apars that describe problems with the error code 80100044 and none of them are applicable to our system except those where I have applied the ptfs. Anyone seen this before. I'm nearly at the hair pulling stage.
