Standard SAP events have 'stopped'

[Rob Lake]

We have had a requisitions release workflow in production for about a =
year.
We're on release 3.1h.  The workflow uses a delegated sub-type of =
BUS2009
and standard SAP events.
 
In the last couple of days the workflow has completely stopped.  I've
checked the workflow definition and everything looks OK.  I've also =
verified
this by simulating an event (SWU0) and checking that the correct =
workflow is
recorded as a receiver.  The problem seems to be that the events
(releaseStepCreated) are no longer triggered when a requisition is =
saved
even though release strategies are being applied correctly.
 
I've checked the event log (SWEL) and nothing shows up against BUS2009.
Other workflows on the same client that use different objects are
functioning perfectly so that rules out problems with WF-BATCH or the =
local
RFC address.
 
Also, other production boxes are working fine - the problem is only on =
one
of them.
 
Strangely the workflows are starting up en masse the following morning =
when
report RSARFCEX (daily tRFC check) is run.  This might suggest an RFC
problem but doesn't explain why other workflows are working or why the
events aren't generated.
 
Any ideas what I should check next?  If the events trigger is within a =
SAP
transaction as in this case, what could stop them being generated?
