I don't like odd.

We run seven LPARs where ETR automatically changed time at the start of Daylight Saving Time this year. On every RMFGAT task, the following messages appear: All msgs at exactly 03:00:00: ERB803I III: MONITOR III DATA SET SUPPORT TERMINATED ERB307I III: MONITOR III DATA GATHERER ERB3GINI. INTERFACE BPX1SDD ERB307I III: FAILED. RETURN CODE: 0000 REASON CODE: 0000 ERB105I III: DATA GATHERER ACTIVE I suspect ERB803I and ERB105I are the normal messages for time change, and that perhaps because of the interface used internally to "recycle" Monitor III, the ERB307I RC0 RSN0 may have been a side effect. By the way, we did not ourselves manually recycle RMF or RMFGAT at time change. These messages simply appear in the job log of the still running RMFGAT task which has been running since our last IPL in February.
