We're running an 820 on V5R2.  A critical EDI application connects to
the AS/400 Netserver via a shared drive.  

Periodically, the AS/400 Netserver stops responding.  Any and all shared
ISF drives simply fail to exist.  I've called IBM on this and their
solution (the one time I called) was to shut down the QSERVER subsystem
and restart it.  Unfortunately, one of the jobs in QSERVER will not go
away.  Even with ENDJOBABN on that job it still doesn't end.  (I can't
remember the job name at the current time.)  

The ONLY solution is to IPL the machine!  This happened 4 times last
week while I was on vacation.  Two occasions occurred only 60 minutes
apart.  During the middle of the day.  I've got unhappy users when I
need to IPL twice in one morning.   Suddenly OS/400 is acting like
Win2K.  

I need to actively pursue this with IBM now that I'm back from vacation
but wondered if anyone of you have heard of this?

Heeeelp!
