RE: savrst IFS/libraries while in restricted state not working

Rob,

No, since the enterprise extenders need the full IP stack up and running.
BRMS does use the 'short stack' which I believe actually runs in LIC rather
than IBM i (could be wrong about that it's been a while since I really
looked at it since it just works)

Larry,

Can the controlling subsystem be in RSTD state? IOW, WRKSBS, F11=Display
system data, will show RSTD instead.

I know that BRMS, with the networking feature, starts a small subset of
TCP/IP so that it can communicate with other systems to beg for tapes (if
needed).

Starting the controlling subsystem after getting into a restricted state
tends to fire off some autostart job entries and whatnot which normally
starts all processes.

SAVRST runs over SNA. SNA is all shut down when systems are in
restricted condition.

You will need at a minimum the controlling subsystem, QSYSWRK, QSERVER.

Then you will need your TCP/IP Interfaces up and running to carry the
traffic. Given SNA today rides on Enterprise Extenders (Preferred) or
Anynet (NOT Preferred) that needs TCP/IP.

we have 2 systems. i would like to savrst from one system to the other.
i put both systems in restricted state due to "in use" issues. But when
i try to issue the savrst, i get a communication error.

Can someone tell me whats the minumum to "start" on each system so i can
do the savrst and and not have any "in use" issues?
