Message "EZD1314I TCP/IP AND EXTENDED SERVICES ARE NOW INITIALIZED FOR STACK" not living up to its expectations

EZD1314I is supposed to tell us that TCPIP is ready and waiting for work and that it's ok to start applications that depend on TCPIP to be fully active. We wait for EZD1314I to appear at IPL time and yet our TN3270 servers kick out error message "EZZ6011I TN3270E BPX4CON FAILED, RC = 0000045E RSN = 76630000" which indicates routes aren't available (yet). The situation eventually clears but this is a false alarm.

    This was addressed via doc update to 2.5 and 3.1. Updates were made to the message text for EZD1314I and to the IP Diagnosis Guide to clarify the processing.

    If I understand your text correctly, this is working as designed. The "all TCP/IP subsystems" message processing doesn't check for OMPROUTE directly because it doesn't necessarily know if OMPROUTE will be running (not all customers use dynamic routing) and also even if OMPROUTE is running, there really isn't a way to tell when the routing table is completely populated. However your workaround of using MONINTERFACE DYNROUTE is exactly how we expect users to get around that issue because one of the things that this initialization message looks for is that dynamic VIPAs and sysplex are initialized. Since MONINTERFACE DYNROUTE prevents joining the Sysplex until there is at least one dynamic route over the monitored interfaces, the fact that the processing for this message waits for sysplex initialization is the way to make it wait for dynamic routes.

    We will accept this requirement and fulfill it with a documentation update explaining this aspect better.
