INETD server

The Internet daemon (INETD) server must be started in order for a node to be added or started, as well as for merge partition processing.

It is recommended that the INETD server always be running in your cluster.

Using iSeries™ Navigator

This requires Option 41 (i5/OS™ - HA Switchable Resources) to be installed and licensed.

To start the INETD server, follow these steps:
  1. In iSeries Navigator, expand Network.
  2. Expand Servers.
  3. Expand TCP/IP.
  4. Right-click INETD and select Start.

Using CL commands and APIs

The INETD server can also be started using the STRTCPSVR (Start TCP/IP Server) command and specifying the *INETD parameter. When the INETD server is started, a QTOGINTD (User QTCP) job will be present in the Active Jobs list on the subject node.
