Explanation
The operator entered the command with
an operand or combination of operands that was not valid. Two or more
options might be mutually exclusive, or a particular option might
be valid only for some types of nodes. This message might also occur
when an NCP or channel-to-channel adapter is already activated with
different parameters.
System action
VTAM® rejects
the command.
Operator response
Ensure that you entered the command correctly.
If the problem persists, save the system log and print the major node
definition for problem determination.
System programmer response
Check the command description for
restrictions on the use of operands.
- If this message was the result of the activation of a major node
that was already active, such as an NCP, the conflict is probably
between an operand on the command and either:
- An operand on a definition statement, or
- An operand specified on the prior activation.
- If the major node in question is not active, instruct the operator
to simply reenter the command with corrected options.
- If, however, the major node is already active and the conflict
is between an operand specified on the new activation and the one
used on a prior activation, you will need to deactivate the major
node if the new operand is required, then reactivate it.
Note: Deactivating the major node will disrupt any active
sessions that use the node.
