Solution

1. Assuming you know the name of the subsystem you can easily check this by typing

"WRKACTJOB" and then the key.

2. Look for the subsystem; page down, if necessary. If you don't see it, type "STRSBS

ZZZ" (where ZZZ equals the name of your subsystem) and then the key.

Note: To start a subsystem, the user must have job control (*JOBCTL) special authority.

Possible Cause 4.2.5

The network route is not up.

Solution

Make certain that the route(s) is/are up and running.

1. On the AS/400 command line, type CFGTCP followed by the key.
2. Select

the

option

Work with TCP/IP Interfaces, by typing a 1 and then .

3. Hit

the

key to Display Interface Status.

4. If it is "Inactive", use option 9 to start it.
5. If it reads "Starting", give it about a minute or so and then hit "F5" to refresh the display.

If anything else other than "Inactive" or "Starting" appears it's time to get the AS/400
administrator involved and if he or she is already involved then it's time to call IBM, or
your AS/400 Consultant.

Possible Cause 4.2.6

The Ethernet standard is not set to *ALL or the line speed setting is not correct.

Solution

If you're connecting the AS/400 via an Ethernet line there is a parameter, which may
prevent the MinIT 6000 from ‘talking’ to the AS/400. This can be checked by:

1. On the AS/400 command line, type WRKCFGSTS *LIN followed by the

key.

2. Once you locate the line you are trying to connect to, select the option Work with

Description, by typing a 8 and then .

3. Type

the

5 and then to bring up the Display.

4. Make

sure

that

Ethernet standard is set to *ALL and that the correct line speed is

displayed.

5. The line speed can be changed by hitting the key to Cancel and then selecting

option 2.

6. If you need to change Ethernet standard you will have to type CRTLINETH and

create a new line description. For this help, consult your AS/400 administrator or
IBM. You can also try the IBM publication, "Getting Your AS/400 Working for You"
(SC41-5161-00), chapter 6.

Problem 4.3

Unable to connect the MinIT 6000 to the host and the AS/400 cannot ping the
MinIT6000. The AS/400 is at the latest PTF and CUM level and is able to ping other
devices. Also, your network administrator made sure the the IP addresses are correct.
