Vince, I do appreciate the help even though there is about an 8 hour time difference as I am on the West Coast.
Yes, we do have 2 connections from our z/OS LPAR (10.100.5.71)...First connection is to 10.100.5.72 which is another z/OS LPAR where we do our backups and that connection is working as it always has. The second connection is to our z/VM LPAR (10.100.5.73) and that is not working. When I start the link from RSCS using SMSG RSCS START LINKNAME I get successful messages. I even see successful messages on the z/OS console and it even looks like it starts to send something but just freezes at that point. QUERY LINK requires a virtual device and I'm not sure what that device number is. Here is an odd one...when I do QUERY NODE * I get invalid option - NODE. The weekend is not shaping up very well.

It's recommended in the z/VM manual. The NETSTAT ALLCONN display shows that JES's NETSRV is listening (waiting for a connection from another TCP/IP) on port 175. It also shows two established connections - one JES NETSRV connection between 10.100.5.71 (your z/OS?) to 10.100.5.72 and one between 10.100.5.71 and 10.100.5.73. Is either of those your z/VM? I think the z/OS & JES stuff all looks ok - onto the z/VM side... What happens now when you start the LINK? What does a QUERY LINK show? What does a QUERY NODE your z/OS node id show? Sorry this is so painful. Me being in the UK in a different timezone doesn't help... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN Confidentiality Notice: This e- mail and all attachments may contain CONFIDENTIAL information and are meant solely for the intended recipient.
