Justin,
With regard to how it "disappeared" or "changed", I think I
remember that if the device is changed to say a different
model or it moved to a different line (read: hard wired controller port)
it can mess with the S36 assignment. There's also a limit
to the number of 2 character representations to devices so
if you run over that number then you can cause assignment
problems. If I'm not remembering correctly, I apologize but it
has been a long time since we've had S36 issues like that.

We have two identical IPDS band printers (P3 & P5) attached via Ethernet.
Starting today, we're seeing S/36 errors saying "Printer P5 was not found
on the system". Thru the beauty of IBMi command naming standards, and
command wildcards, I stumbled on to DSPS36 which shows me that S/36 uses
different printer names than IBMi. It shows that S/36 is now using a
different name for that printer.

Two questions:

1. How do I change it back?

2. What caused it to change in the first place?


Thanks

Justin Taylor
