4.9 - TURNING OFF THE THIN CLIENT
Care should be taken to avoid powering off the thin client when sessions are active. A server
cannot detect if a TCP/IP device is turned-off, so the current TCP/IP connections remain active as
far as the server is concerned - resulting in various potential issues.
Under Unix it is advisable not to turn off the TCP/IP AX3000 when a login prompt is displayed
(something which is commonly done with serial UNIX terminals). This is because a telnet
connection has been opened and will then become an orphan process. The following examples
illustrate how the TCP/IP AX3000 differs from a conventional dumb terminal:
- If the 'auto-reconnect' parameter if set to 'yes', a stable stage cannot be reached on the
AX3000. New telnet connections will repeatedly be opened.
- Under OS/400, it is impossible to exit the login stage, because there is no way to close the
current telnet session.
