One thing you could do in the interrim is set up an RSCS events file to issue a START command every ten or fifteen minutes to the link. If it's already going it will just say "Already Started", but if it isn't started it'll try to start it. That way it's half-way automated if they happen to re

What I think is happening here, since it was mentioned that the problem only occurs when the JES link has not been started is, JES decided to make an implementation change to stop RSCS from retrying connect attempts until the JES link had started. What they decided to do was to reject the RSCS con

Thanks, Kris. That I knew, having done it for SNANJE links (but may have forgotten to do it for this new link had you not reminded me). But this isn't (yet, until it gets started) a restart problem. It's a START problem, and failure to stay in pending start (my term) status. I'll open a PMR

Note too that when a TCPNJE links breaks, RSCS will not attempt to restart, unless... your create a "LinkName GCS" Rexx exec and place an Address RSCS 'START linkname' inside it. Still not 100% perfect I learned, but it helps. Yes, SNA links has fewer start problems. 2007/1/15, Mike Walter <[EM

We are just now beginning to experiment with the RSCS TCPNJE link to z/OS (had to wait for z/OS to provide a TCPNJE link for JES2). When we start an SNANJE link on RSCS, it will wait patiently for the remote side to start up. But when attempting to start an RSCS TCPNJE line driver (link name "UT
