RE: Vary on device Failed

[Bob Crothers <bob@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You need to call IBM Support line.  They have a PTF that will fix this 
for you.

Tell them "Twinax 5150 devices staying active" and they should be able 
to give you the PTF number.

I appreciate the Help, But I have already tried to delete and recreate 
the
device
The device I'm using is a 5150 device using Client Access over a 5250
emulation
card. I have also made sure that the max. of devices on the ctr is 
less or
equal
to 40.

 Thanks for the help in advance.. Robin

I have experienced this problem with my tape drive last month and what 
I did
was
to re create the device description and then the vary on worked.

 Hi all,
I first wanted to thank you all for the information I have received 
from
this
Midrange System Mailing List.

We are running in S36 mode on an as400  V4r3 and from time to time I 
get
the following message on a device after it had ceased to 
comunicate(Usually
when power failers or just users closing an open session.

This is a workstation device named Z1 uses an 5250 emulation card.
I can vary the device ( it first showes failed sometimes) , but when I 
vary
the device on, I get the following message.

Usually atleast by the next day I can vary the device on and it will 
work.

I have worked with active jobs to make sure the job isnt still 
running.

Thanks for you help.. Robin
