Re: ipl tcpip
You can not share the same triplet, you will need another triplet. However, I would suggest putting your stacks on a vswitch and giving the triplet to the vswitch, then you can use the same virtual address on the two stacks.

Re: ipl tcpip
I think you have two choices here, David. 1) log onto your z/VM system via another path other than TCP/IP, e.g., a locally attached 3270 or OSA ICC. 2) use a utility like AUDITOR (included with z/VM) to automatically xautolog TCPIP after you have forced it off. Of course, this will disrupt your TN3270 session for the length of time it takes for TCPIP to come back up. Have a good one.

Re: ipl tcpip
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.
