John Giltner says he stops his app on one LPAR and starts it on another. He 
implies that he is not issuing activate/deactivate for the DVIPA address. It 
would make more sense for IBM to automatically deactivate the address when it 
has no ports in use and to automatically activate it when the first listener 
starts.

There are times when activate / deactivate command is needed. For instance, you 
may have applications running in case of failover recovery but you don't want 
them used until the other system fails. Recovery would only need to activate 
the address without the need to startup the applications and resources.
