Dave was right, > IMO: It Maybe on VM it has, but I have found that a clean shutdown of RSCS goes a long way toward preventing operational headaches when trying to reconnect to z/OS or MVS systems. Before I created a SHUTDOWN EXEC that tells RSCS to SHUTDOWN QUICK, many of our MVS systems would have to drain the link and restart it. Sometimes, there were time dependencies - a link would have to be drained on both the MVS system and on VM; then the start order needed to be VM first, JES next. Following the SHUTDOWN QUICK, we have only one problem link and it is consistent. It does start after about 15 minutes. > > Alan Altmark > z/VM Development > IBM Endicott >
