After InDoubt and InFlight work completes, the product server shuts down. A new application server configured for that system is then started up to accept new work. Special considerations must be taken if you are using IMS™ Connect after recovering to an alternate system.
After server recovery is completed, IMS Connect starts, but is not usable without some manual intervention. On the current IMS Connect WTOR perform the following commands nn,viewhws followed by nn,viewhwsnn,opends XXX where XXX is the IMS subsystem name displayed in the result of the nn,viewhws query. The IMS datastore needs to reflect 'active' status, as is shown in the following example:
*17 HWSC0000I *IMS CONNECT READY* IMSCONN
R 17,VIEWHWS
IEE600I REPLY TO 17 IS;VIEWHWS
HWSC0001I HWS ID=IMSCONN Racf=N
HWSC0001I Maxsoc=100 Timeout=12000
HWSC0001I Datastore=IMS Status=ACTIVE
HWSC0001I Group=IMSGROUP Member=IMSCONN
HWSC0001I Target Member=IMSA
HWSC0001I Port=9999 Status=ACTIVE
HWSC0001I No active Clients
HWSC0001I Port=LOCAL Status=ACTIVE
HWSC0001I No active Clients
After you complete the required manual intervention, IMS Connect is ready to handle new work on this server.
