Brad,

With the move to the new building, would this now be on a different/new network/and/or firewalls?

Subject: IPL Startup and Odd Changes?

Ok, this is a little strange so bear with me.

I work with a client and they recently moved buildings. Yesterday when they brought the system back up there were some oddities:

1. Every web server instance was started, including APACHEDFT (which is set to not autostart). This of course stopped their real web server instance from starting. Easily fixed.

2. The QUSRWRK subsystem was not started. This caused the SSHD server to not start which in turn means their node job(s) weren't running. This again was fixed by starting the subsystem, starting SSHD and then starting the node job.

3. QNTC wasn't showing any shares available (which are very important in their applications). I couldn't get those back.

So, we thought something went wrong with the IPL. Didn't see anything in the job log or QSYSOPR or in QPGMR for the job log for QSTRUP.

So they IPLd last night again.

This morning QHTTPSVR subsystem and NO web jobs were running (which is opposite of what happened before).

QUSRWRK was not running. I started the web jobs and QUSRWRK, SSHD and then checked QNTC (after doing this, I wish I would have before). All the shares were now there.

So this is odd... why would these subsystems/etc be not starting during an IPL? And why the oddities with QNTC?

They IPL once a week and never had this issue before. I don't think the move to the new building would have had any effect, but I thought I'd mention it since it's the only thing we can think of that changed.

No PTFs installed recently either. V7R3.
