You can unreserve those ports by creating a member named DELPORTS with the following (where xxxxxx is the name in your existing profile where you have the ports reserved). Use obeyfile against your ipstack, pointing to DELPORTS.
DELETE PORT 5150 TCP xxxxxxx DELETE PORT 2112 TCP xxxxxxx You can P/S TN3270 to cycle the task.
