APAR Error Description / Circumvention

-----------------------------------------------
A direct connected virtual NWSH needs to be varied off when
performing the install integrated server (INSINTSVR) command to
ensure no other NWSD could be using the virtual NWSH.  This is
contradictory to how the installation of a server using the GUI
installation wizard works since it requires the NWSH to be
active and therefore does not allow installation using a direct
connect NWSH which is varied off.

CORRECTION FOR APAR SE52940 :
-----------------------------
The INSINTSVR command will allow a virtual direct connect NWSH
to be used for install when it is in ACTIVE or VARIED OFF
status.

CIRCUMVENTION FOR APAR SE52940 :

None.
