				i am getting a message that ....
 
 
amq9213: a communications error for tcp/ip occured
 
action: the return code from the tcp/ip(recv) [timeout]360 seconds call was 0(x'0'). 
 
 
Then i get an error on my sdr chl.
 
 
amq9999: chl program ended abnormally.
 
 
Then the chl retries and gets error message
 
 
amq9558: remote chl is not currently available.
 
 
the host side, where this is pointing to states that he is in running state and i am in a retry on my server side...
 
 
after a few minutes it just comes back.
 
 
 
i am on a win2k server running mq 6.0.1.0 |

				Sounds like network / firewall issues, where the channel connections being terminated due to inactivity. Or something. _________________ Honesty is the best policy.

If I'm correct (and if a firewall has been added it does sound likely) changing the disconnect will not help. The channel's not disconnecting, it's being disconnected by the firewall.
 
 
You're probably better off with a triggered channel, and a disconnect interval less than the firewall's inactive termination limit so it closes cleanly before it gets chopped. _________________ Honesty is the best policy.

Then it's an inactive timeout, if a new telnet session is getting through but an old channel session is getting chopped. _________________ Honesty is the best policy.

I did mean the firewall timing the connection out rather than the channel.
 
 
Sorry if I failed to make that entirely clear.    _________________ Honesty is the best policy.

				i understood, i just wanted my chl to time out before the fw did. i did verify that there is no firewall between us so that is not the issue. i am currently running mq traces on the server as well as the host, i am trying
 
to get the network team to get a sniffer going. as of now the chl has not
 
gone down and i have passed about 9000 messages |

It's amazing. Sometimes the network stops working, then suddenly starts again, and all without any changes to the network whatsoever. Honest.
