IXC207A
XCF INITIALIZATION IS RESTARTED. RESPECIFY COUPLE SYSTEM PARAMETER, REPLY couple=xx.

Explanation

Previous message(s) describe why XCF initialization was restarted. The system requires a new COUPLExx parmlib member to restart XCF initialization.

In the message text:
couple=xx
The suffix for the alternate COUPLExx parmlib member.

System action

System initialization stops until the operator specifies a COUPLExx parmlib member.

If XCF initialization is to be restarted for an issue related to signalling connectivity, message IXC207A prompts the operator to respecify the COUPLExx parmlib member. The response to message IXC207A determines whether message IXC305I is displayed on an operator console. If the same COUPLExx parmlib member is specified, message IXC305I will be displayed. If a different COUPLExx parmlib member is specified, message IXC305I will not be displayed on the operator console, but IXC305I will always be displayed on the hardcopy log.

Operator response

Reply COUPLE=xx, where xx is either:
  • The same suffix to try the same COUPLExx parmlib member again.
  • A different suffix to specify an alternate COUPLExx parmlib member, if there is one available. Then notify the system programmer.

    If you are IPLing in order to correct the COUPLExx parmlib member, specify COUPLE=00 to IPL the system in XCF-local mode.
