ATB013E
SYNTAX ERROR IN APPC INITIALIZATION INPUT PARAMETERS. START APPC COMMAND IGNORED.

Explanation

The system was unable to initialize Advanced Program-to-Program Communication (APPC) because of a syntax error in one of the following places:
  • The APPC keyword specified in the START APPC command
  • The subparameters specified in the PARM parameter of the EXEC statement in the APPC member of SYS1.PROCLIB

System action

The system continues processing without APPC.

Operator response

Check the syntax of the APPC keyword value specified in the START APPC command. The value should be one of the following:
  • A single two-character parmlib suffix
  • A list of parmlib suffixes separated by commas and optionally ended by an L. You must enclose the list in parentheses.

See z/OS MVS System Commands for the syntax of the START APPC command.

System programmer response

In the APPC member of SYS1.PROCLIB, check the syntax of the subparameters specified in the PARM parameter of the EXEC statement that invokes the APPC initialization routine.

The syntax must follow these rules:
  • The required APPC subparameter must be a symbolic parameter corresponding to the one in the PROC statement. For example, if the parameter in the PROC statement is APPC=00, then the APPC subparameter should be APPC=&APPC.
  • The optional BUFSTOR subparameter must be a 1- to 4-digit numeric value. Examples are BUFSTOR=1024 or BUFSTOR=88.
  • The optional CONVBUFF subparameter must be a 1- to 7-digit numeric value. Examples are CONVBUFF=1000 or the maximum value of CONVBUFF=2097152.
  • If you specify the APPC, BUFSTOR, and CONVBUFF subparameters (or any two of those three subparameters), you can specify them in any order, but you must separate each with a comma.
  • You cannot specify the APPC, BUFSTOR, or CONVBUFF parameter more than once.

For more information about the APPC initialization subparameters. see the topic on improving performance through system changes in z/OS MVS Planning: APPC/MVS Management.
