RE: "GO SAVE 21" & NFS

Rob,

Can you elaborate on the issues with having to end TCP/IP.
I end most of my subsystems in a process one by one, option *immed.
The I have a scheduled job that does my BRMS system save.
I never have any issues with a BRMS system save.
I think BRMS ends TCP/IP under the covers, then starts its own limited version.

Paul

An important thing to remember is that with the last several releases of IBM i it is very important that you end TCP before you attempt to bring the system into a restricted state.
Even if you get the messages "System ended to restricted state" some TCP/IP processes will still be running.

This is documented.

Therefore run the ENDTCP prior to ENDSBS *ALL.
Now, at 7.3, the help for GO SAVE 21 does state that it will do the ENDTCP prior to the ENDSBS.
