In case you didn't see precisely what Luke was asking you to do - and I'll 
admit it was only when I noticed that the TELNET flavour of the VARY 
command did *not* include the CONN option - he is saying that it was 
incorrect of you to be using the TN3270E program address space name but 
that you should be using the name of the main Communications Server (CS) 
address space. As I noted, there is no such thing as a VARY 
TCPIP,<n>,TELNET,CONN command but there is a VARY TCPIP,<n>,CONN 
command where "n" has to be the name of the main CS IP address space.

I wondered whether the "connection identifier" which you have derived from a 
DISPLAY TCPIP,<n>,TELNET,CONN command might be different from those 
obtained by a DISPLAY TCPIP,<n>,NETSTAT,CONN command but there are lots 
of reasons why the "connection identifier" should be the same entity.

It depends on your release of z/OS, but, with the later releases, the "TELNET" 
in the TN3270E commands is optional. This "flexibility" can add to possible 
confusion - as we see!

You should not be using the TN3270E INACT option in this context since that 
is all about making the name of what is or could become an APPL statement - 
acting as a secondary LU - unavailable.

What I started out saying until I noticed that Luke had "nailed" it, was the 
following which still makes a useful point - although reveals a problem:

A configuration supported by the z/OS Communications Server TN3270E 
program consists of an SNA session which the TN3270E program acting as a 
TN3270 server concatenates to a TN3270 TCP connection.

The fact that there is no name under APPLID in the DISPLAY 
TCPIP,<tn3270servername>,CONN command may indicate that the SNA 
session part of the configuration no longer exists. However, the "A" 
under "TSP PTR" indicates that there should be an application - so that's a 
mystery!

However, depending on your TN3270E PROFILE specifications, once the SNA 
session is no longer there, the connection may still exist. In fact, checking 
your post, I see that the connection persists even after CICS has "stopped", 
presumed to be shut down. Thus making sure that the SNA session is 
terminated with a VTAM VARY INACT may not achieve your objective which is 
to terminate the TN3270 TCP connection.
