５Host　SYSPLEX
JES-MAS
Event detection using JES-EXIT
Controller runs on one host

【Events】
During host maintenance, only the maintenance target host is stopped, and operation is continued in a degraded state.
When starting a host that was stopped after maintenance、Between JES2 startup and TWS tracker startup (about 8 minutes)
Status update of jobs executed on other hosts、What happened after starting JES2 on the running host and before starting the TWS tracker,
event occurred that caused the TWS status update to be lost.

For the running host, we received advice to leave the JES-MAS configuration by command until TWS tracker startup,it is judged that it is difficult to change from now on the system that has started production、This is a situation where fundamental measures have not been taken.

【Request]
In future TWS versions, we would like to request the addition of a function that can avoid the above phenomenon with the TWS function
