z/OS Communications Server: IP Messages Volume 4 (EZZ, SNM)
SC27-3657-01

EZZ8163I
stack_name MTU value stack_val for interface differs from omproute_procname MTU value omproute_val

Explanation

The TCP/IP stack informed OMPROUTE that the specified interface is defined to the stack. The MTU value defined to the stack for the interface is not the same MTU value that is being used by OMPROUTE for the interface.

In the message text:
stack_name
The name of the TCP/IP stack.
stack_val
The MTU value that is defined to the stack for the interface.
interface
The name of the interface.
omproute_procname
The name of the OMPROUTE instance.
omproute_val
The MTU value that is being used by OMPROUTE for the interface.

System action

OMPROUTE continues. All routes that are using the specified interface that are added to the stack route table by OMPROUTE will have the MTU value set to the value that is being used by OMPROUTE.

Operator response

Contact the system programmer.

System programmer response

Take one of the following actions so that the stack and OMPROUTE will use the same MTU value for the interface:
  • If OMPROUTE is using the correct MTU value for the interface:
    1. Use the VARY TCPIP,,STOP command to stop the interface.
    2. Issue the VARY TCPIP,,OBEYFILE command with a profile that contains an INTERFACE DELETE statement for the interface, followed by an INTERFACE DEFINE statement for the interface that includes the correct MTU value.
    3. Use the VARY TCPIP,,START command to start the interface.
    4. (Optional) To make the change to the MTU value permanent in the TCP/IP profile, modify the INTERFACE statement that defines the interface in the TCP/IP profile to specify the value that is being used by OMPROUTE.

    See IPAQENET OSA-Express QDIO interfaces in z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Reference for information about the INTERFACE statement in the TCP/IP profile.

    See VARY TCPIP,,START or VARY TCPIP,,STOP in z/OS Communications Server: IP System Administrator's Commands for information about the VARY TCPIP,,STOP and VARY TCPIP,,START commands. See VARY TCPIP,,OBEYFILE in z/OS Communications Server: IP System Administrator's Commands for information about the VARY TCPIP,,OBEYFILE command.

  • If the stack is using the correct MTU value for the interface:
    • Modify any OSPF_INTERFACE, RIP_INTERFACE, and INTERFACE statements that define the interface in the OMPROUTE configuration file to specify the value being used by the stack.
    • If the interface is configured to OMPROUTE using a wildcard configuration statement, you might need to explicitly configure this interface with a separate configuration statement.
    • If this interface is not configured to OMPROUTE and you do not want to add it to the OMPROUTE configuration, modify the OMPROUTE configuration file to include a GLOBAL_OPTIONS statement that specifies IGNORE_UNDEFINED_INTERFACES=YES. See OMPROUTE configuration file in z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Reference for information about the OSPF_INTERFACE, RIP_INTERFACE, INTERFACE, and GLOBAL_OPTIONS statements in the OMPROUTE configuration file.
    • After you have made the appropriate changes to the OMPROUTE configuration file, restart OMPROUTE.

User response

Not applicable.

Automation

This message is displayed on the system console. You can use automation to issue an alert when the stack and OMPROUTE are using different MTU values for an interface.

Example

EZZ8163I TCPCS1 MTU value 8992 for OSA1 differs from OMPROUT1 MTU value 5000
