Then again, unless those cables are in really bad shape, it's highly likely
that's not the problem.

Except I can swap cables in less time. :)

Before you swap cables have you called IBM? They'll most likely have
you do comm traces, but then again there might be a setting none of us
are thinking about/remembering too.

Anyone got any ideas? It's still happening. I'm about ready to start
swapping out cables.

Arrgh. Forgot to add: We also have Mochasoft and those sessions do
NOT disconnect.

All,

V7R1, using ACS.

About 2-3 weeks ago, on 2 of our Windows 10 desktops, the 5250
sessions started disconnecting after a relatively short period of
non-use. Like maybe 10-15 minutes. One desktop is local, the other is
remote via VPN.
These are the only 2 desktops doing this, all other desktops (Win 7
and Win
10) are fine. For that reason, I'm assuming it's something at the PC
level, hence posting to this list.

You can reconnect with a mouse click.

The night before this started, our Meraki MX60 routers received a
firmware update, but I don't see how that would affect this. But I
thought I'd mention it.

I'm concentrating on the local one right now because it's easier to
troubleshoot local.

I have checked the power settings of the desktops. They never go to
sleep.

In ACS, I went to Communication/Configure/Advanced and set Keep-Alive
to yes. No joy.

In ACS, I went to Communication/Configure and set Auto-Reconnect to
yes.
No joy. (But the use did notice.)

The local one has had 2 java updates since and still no joy.

What else should I be looking at?

Thanks.
