Ok, this is a little strange so bear with me.

I work with a client and they recently moved buildings. Yesterday when
they brought the system back up there were some oddities:

1. Every web server instance was started, including APACHEDFT (which is
set to not autostart). This of course stopped their real web server
instance from starting. Easily fixed.

2. The QUSRWRK subsystem was not started. This caused the SSHD server to
not start which in turn means their node job(s) weren't running. This
again was fixed by starting the subsystem, starting SSHD and then starting
the node job.

3. QNTC wasn't showing any shares available (which are very important in
their applications). I couldn't get those back.

So, we thought something went wrong with the IPL. Didn't see anything in
the job log or QSYSOPR or in QPGMR for the job log for QSTRUP.

So they IPLd last night again.

This morning QHTTPSVR subsystem and NO web jobs were running (which is
opposite of what happened before).

QUSRWRK was not running. I started the web jobs and QUSRWRK, SSHD and
then
checked QNTC (after doing this, I wish I would have before). All the
shares were now there.

So this is odd... why would these subsystems/etc be not starting during an
IPL? And why the oddities with QNTC?

They IPL once a week and never had this issue before. I don't think the
move to the new building would have had any effect, but I thought I'd
mention it since it's the only thing we can think of that changed.

No PTFs installed recently either. V7R3.
