I have been in this business for decades and have run in to this situation on a few occaisions. Never really came up with the right recipe to make this happen.
Our JES2 systems are NJE interconnected over SNA links interconnected with several other mainframes at other agencies. For resiliency and reliability they all act as store and forward nodes in the NJE network. We wish to no longer communicate with one of these nodes. Every method I use simply causes the NJE link to switch over to another mainframe in the interconnected network. $P $E $I commands at best cause failoever to another NJE node as the middle man. Killing the SNA CDRSC just causes failover as well. We have found nothing I can do to the NODE, LINE, or APPL that allow me to make this node dead to us. I am trying to do this gracefully by turning it off before modifying JES parms to remove it from my startup. Trying to preseve the possiblility of fallback in case some stealth user pops out from behind the woodshed. Any suggestions? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
