| 7009.1 | Should work automatically | EDSCLU::PORCARO |  | Fri Feb 14 1997 11:14 | 7 | 
|  |     Customer should not have to start the session. If he attempts
    a conversation, the session will start for him at that time.
    
    This assumes he negotiated session limits for the modename prior
    to the LU going inactive.

    LU6.2 only proactively activates sessions after CNOS negotiation when
    the conwinner auto-activate limit is not zero.  Otherwise, it will
    activate a session as an additional session is required and there is
    sufficient session limit for the additional session.  stopping/starting
    the LU6.2 Server process is not necessary.  Use the activate session
    option of the /usr/lib/sna/lu62_config utility to activate sessions if
    one is needed/desired before a conversation requests one.

The peer server does _not_ tell the LU62 Server that an inop'ed line is now
contacted again <g>.  Therefore, even if the min contention winner session 
limit is non-zero, the LU62 Server will not know to automatically activate 
that number of sessions.
As others have suggested, you need to manually activate a session (the 
CNOS session I would guess, since peer-server cannot have one LU use more 
than one link at a time, this session would also be lost on link discontact.)

| 7009.4 | Nope- but if I had a dime for every time I was asked. | DELNI::BARBER_MINGO | Let me DANCE for you | Tue Feb 18 1997 18:01 | 13 | 
|  |     Hi,
    	People have written endless programs to address the issue.
    They write programs that continue activating sessions into perpetuity.
    In this way, they are re-connected if they need to stay connected.
    There is no automatic detect.
    
    	If you happen to have a token ring...
    	You CAN parse the system log, it tells you when you've lost
    and recovered the ring.  Based on THAT, you know you have to restart
    your sessions,and re-negotiate your limits.
    
    Ugly, but true.
