TCP/IP failures

If active IMS Connect ports unexpectedly lose their connection to the TCP/IP services provided by the TCP/IP network or the z/OS® TCP/IP stack, IMS Connect automatically reconnects the ports when the TCP/IP services becomes available again.

To detect when the TCP/IP services become available, IMS Connect continues listening on all active ports. When communication with the TCP/IP services is resumed, IMS Connect reconnects the ports and issues message HWSS0780I.

If communication between a port and the TCP/IP services was terminated by a command, IMS Connect does not automatically resume communication with the TCP/IP services if they should become available.
