RE: Socket program startup sequence

"Is there any suggested method for which program (socket server vs socket
client) should, preferably be started first?

One of our software vendors asks of us as a matter of practice, that
anytime they need to bounce their socket server, I should also, after
their server has restarted, bounce the socket client connections. (They
inform us when this is necessary.)

Now that I have an iSeries RPG socket server program (thanks Scott
Klement), should I also consider the same process with my socket clients?
The reason I ask is, during testing, the connectivity seems a bit flaky,
and I wonder if it's due to the client being connected indefinitely, while

we did end the socket server to do a system save, which afterwards did a
socket client restart."

Sorry - last sentence should have ended with "socket SERVER restart".
