If you go to the description of the NSINTERADDR statement in the IP 
Configuration Reference, as with most statements, you will find a 
section "Steps for modifying". However, unlike most of the statements in the 
manual with which I am familiar, the information here is just pathetic! All it 
does is point you to the MODIFY command in the IP System Administrator’s 
Commands manual. It really should have gone the extra centimetre and 
mentioned that the particular flavour of MODIFY was "MODIFY command—
Resolver address space" since not everyone will know that all these 
TCPIP.DATA statements fall under a topic called "Resolver".

Under "MODIFY command—Resolver address space" you will find the command 
John suggested described.

John has a locally created RESOLVER started task procedure so he can start it 
with the S RESOLVER command. In case you do not have a locally created 
RESOLVER started task procedure, you can still stop and start the provided 
RESOLVER started task. You stop it with the P RESOLVER command, just as 
John again mentioned, but it all gets a bit subtle when you need to start it 
again.

The command you need is START 
IEESYSAS.RESOLVER,PROG=EZBREINI,SUB=MSTR

Not so very obvious is it?

The reason for this command is twofold:

1. You are using only default values for the resolver configuration file so no 
configuration file DD-statement is needed and, when no DD-statement is 
needed, the only logical statement which is needed in the started task 
procedure is 

// EXEC PGM=EZBREINI

2. z/OS - not Communications Server - very kindly provides a generalised 
started task procedure with the name IEESYSAS which I think does absolutely 
nothing - have a look at it, I can't - except to enable some "tricks" permitted 
by JCL, one of which is to override the value of the PGM operand and another 
is the ability to change the procedure name - thereby frustrating some who 
have searched their procedure libraries in vain for a member named RESOLVER!

This subtlety is described in the IP Configuration Guide under "Managing the 
resolver address space".
