This is why we no longer use dedicated console for 01F. If the 01F console goes down, VSE stops. Our VSE does not get forced as we have the "DISCONNECT_TIMEout OFF". We made all of our VSE guests SPECIALS and then DIAL VSEXXX 01F following the XAUTOLOG VSEXXX. This way VSE keeps running, even if 01F goes down or is disconnected.
Ray From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:ib...@listserv.uark.edu] On Behalf Of Bruce Hayden Sent: Tuesday, January 12, 2010 8:59 AM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: Re: FORCED BY SYSTEM While SET RUN ON is a good idea for a server running under VM, it would not have prevented the forced logoff in your case. Adding the "Disconnect_timeout Off" statement to your SYSTEM CONFIG will prevent it, after you reIPL VM. Your problem was because the server's console was connected to a real terminal, and then that connection was broken but a CP DISC command wasn't entered. That makes your virtual machine go into a CP READ state without a terminal and then 15 minutes later, the default "disconnect timeout" period ends and you are forced by the system.
