You might check the IP dead gateway detection setting under CHGTCPA.  If
this is set to *YES and they have a flaky switch (and no alternate route)
the route can be shut down without warning.  (Well, not without warning,
there will be a message in QSYSOPR.)  This did happen to us and I was unable
to reactivate the line without ending and restarting TCP.  To be fair, it
was on my production system and I didn't spend very much time trying other
things first.

If you have only one route I would recommend setting this to *NO.

subject: TCP/IP shutdown or crash

Do you ever have a need to shutdown TCP/IP but keep the rest of the system
up (including applications) and if so, why?

Do you ever have TCP/IP crash?

I have a customer that says sometimes they need to shutdown TCP/IP and that
sometimes it crashes unexpectedly. This creates some "challenges" for one of
our applications that is TCP/IP dependent.

My stance has been that needing to shut TCP/IP down while keeping the rest
of the system up seems very unusual to me, and that having it "crash" is
unheard of and should be reported to IBM immediately.

What do you guys think?

FYI, I'm talking V5R2 here, not some old release.

Anybody?

Thanks,
-Marty
