You need an alternative to TCPIP, like VTAM, PVM or local terminals (OSA-ICC do it). One zLINUX with privileged class using VMCP can send the FORCE/XAUTOLOG commands too. Or, some kind of automation to check when TCPIP are out and restart it, like Operation Manager or PERFSVM (with PROP). Something with the ability to timely send a command to TCPIP, interpret the answer and FORCE/XAUTOLOG it when the answer is bad.

How can I remotely bounce TCPIP without using by HMC? I want to send a
command, say from maint, that would shut it down and subsequently bring it
back.
