CSSMTP fails to start with message EZD1825I CSSMTP JES NOT AVAILABLE

Troubleshooting


Problem

When the JES2 DESTDEF parameter specifies NODENAME=REQUIRED, CSSMTP is able to use only an external writer name that is defined as a destination in JES2. If NODENAME=OPTIONAL, then the destination does not need to be defined in JES2.

Diagnosing The Problem

Start CSSMTP with Loglevel 95.

The log will show message

    JES :002:mlJesSSREQ:SAPI rc=0 SSOBRETN=32 SSS2REAS=36 ECB=00000000
$D DESTDEF will show NODENAME=REQUIRED.

Resolving The Problem

If the JES2 DESTDEF statement specifies NODENAME=REQUIRED, then the writer name specified in the ExtWrtName statement for CSSMTP must be defined to JES2.



You can dynamically define a DESTID to JES using the following command:

    $ADD DESTID(xxxxxxxx),DEST=xxxxxxxx

where xxxxxxxx is the wtrName value specified in the ExtWrtName statement.

To permanently add the destination use the JES initialization DESTID statement:

    DESTID(xxxxxxxx) DEST=xxxxxxxxx


If JES2 DESTDEF specifies NODENAME=OPTIONAL, then the writer name specified on ExtWrtName does not need to be defined to JES2.
