We have two OSAs on our z/OS 1.4 system. The are running in QDIO mode. I remember in the past that __something__ happened and one of the OSAs "died". But I don't remember how. I don't remember if it was the OSA itself that had a problem or if the switch to which it was connected had a problem. My question is: What causes one OSA to "take over" for a second OSA? As I recall, when this happened, no TN3270E sessions were disrupted at all.
I ask because our network people need to do some maintenance to one of the switches which "feeds" one of the OSAs. I'm wondering if the other OSA will automatically take over the first OSA's session, resulting in no outage of service. Thanks - I cannot find an OSA manual, so a pointer to one would be nice also. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer UICI Insurance Center Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its content is protected by law.
