I'll put in my .02 cents, in case these were not thought of........ - were you able to process and see any SMF records during the 4 minute 'outage'.
- see any jobs that finished just after you came out of the 'outage' that could've caused the problem. - a notification to your users to ask if they started or did something at the time the 'outage' started. - next time it happens can you go back and look at RMF Monitor III to check for any hints. - a debugging possibility is to start GTF and let it run to trace DSP, IO, EXT, SVC, etc events but depending on activity, etc, performance could be affected.

Maybe. If he does, he might want to set a SLIP trap to take an SVCDUMP when the that job gets the s222. -- Tom Marchant ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
