    S and A are obsolete.
    
    S was "on startup"
    A was "always"

    "S" was actually very useful as an intermediate step between N <--> Y
    and Y <--> Y. In the case of N <--> Y if the "N" group is restarted
    then you must wait for the "Y" group to reach its reconnect timeout
    before the xgroup link is re-established. S <--> Y is very useful for
    restart/reboot scenarios.

| 2841.3 | There is nothing special about the "S" setting... | KLOVIA::MICHELSEN | BEA/DEC MessageQ Engineering | Tue Apr 08 1997 09:12 | 12 |

S == Y with a zero reconnect timer
	This causes the LDs to only automatically attempt once during startup.
A == Y with a non-zero reconnect timer

    You say  S and A are obsolete.
    What will happen if a customer still uses this values, do that lead to
    unpredictable results ,...lost messages ?
    
    For instance a customer has got the following settings on the node
    CSAX03 :
    
    *Group name        ID      System       Cnt Pool Timer Delay  Size
    Trnsprt Addr
    *--------------- ----- ---------------- --- ---- ----- ----- ------------ -----
    SSI_PROD_CLIENT    2        CSAX03       S  75    -1    -1    -1  TCPIP   4091
    SSI_PROD           1        CSL4         A  75    -1    -1    -1  TCPIP   4090
    
    
    and
    
    *Group name       ID      System        Cnt Pool Timer Delay  Size
    Trnsprt Addr
    *--------------- ----- ---------------- --- ---- ----- ----- -----
    ------- -----
    SSI_PROD          1       CSL4          A    75    -1    -1    -1  
    TCPIP   4090
    *SSI_PROD         1       CSL3          A    75    -1    -1    -1  
    TCPIP   4092
    SSI_PROD_CLIENT   2      CSAX03         S    75    -1    -1    -1  
    TCPIP   4091
    
    on Node CSL4
    
    What should we advise the customer ?
    
    Thanks

	  No lost msgs, in fact no problems until they try to go to 
	V4.0 when these settings will no longer parse.

	  They don't need to change anything but I would plan on phasing
	in the documented equivalents when it is convient.  This will
	pave the way for upgrading to V4.0.
