Specifies whether VTAM® should automatically send an LDLC probe to the remote partner to determine if all ports are accessible during the activation of the EE connection. This option might also specify the time interval at which VTAM should send the probe on active EE connections.

You can change the EEVERIFY value with the MODIFY VTAMOPTS command while VTAM is running. The MODIFY VTAMOPTS command changes the value of all active connections immediately.

You can display the EEVERIFY value by issuing the DISPLAY VTAMOPTS command.

Rule: EEVERIFY is meaningful only if VTAM provides RTP-level HPR support. The NODETYPE start option must be specified and the RTP value must be specified on the HPR start option.

EEVERIFY=ACTIVATE
Specifies that VTAM should automatically send an LDLC probe to the remote partner to determine whether all ports are accessible during the activation of the EE connection. If one or more ports are not reachable or are blocked, then VTAM issues an error message and does not activate the EE connection.
EEVERIFY=NEVER
Specifies that VTAM should never automatically send an LDLC probe to the remote partner to determine if all ports are accessible during the activation of the EE connection.
EEVERIFY=Number_of_minutes
Specifies that VTAM should automatically send an LDLC probe during the activation of the EE connection and that VTAM should continue to periodically send LDLC probes at intervals specified by the Number_of_minutes value while the connection is active. Valid values for Number_of_minutes are in the range 1 - 1440 minutes (1440 minutes specifies 1 day). If one or more ports are not reachable or are blocked at activation, then VTAM issues an error message and does not activate the EE connection. If one or more ports are not reachable after the connection is active, VTAM issues an error message, but the connection remains active.
