Richard, Just curious, do you have PATHMGR=NO for your RSCS JES/2 NODE definition?

Their side apparently has an autostart because whenever the link drops and RSCS restarts it from the VM side, the signs are done and the link reestablished for another 22 minutes.

It is documented in the RSCS Planning and Installation manual although the option is KEEPALIV= (not keepalive) and the default is yes. So RSCS would have enabled keepalive for the socket session, that would probably be what is happening. >From the other threads, if JES has defined an ITO= parameter, I would think they would have sent a signoff record when the link went down, not just leave the link in a 'gone' state. I bet something else is taking the link away. Is the JES side aware of the link state? Best Regards, Les Geer IBM z/VM and Linux Development
