command FOR resourcename FAILED, CODE = code

Explanation

VTAM® issues this message in response to a MODIFY DIRECTRY,UPDATE command which attempted to change the owning CP or the network node server for resourcename. The name specified for either the CPNAME or NETSRVR operand is not consistent with the information found in the APPN directory.

command is always F DIRECTRY which refers to the MODIFY DIRECTRY,UPDATE command.

resourcename is the network-qualified name of the resource in the form netid.name. resourcename can be the same resource that you entered on the ID operand of the MODIFY DIRECTRY,UPDATE command or a resource that is subordinate to the resource named on the command.

The following list of values for code describes the failure:
Code
Error
1
resourcename was identified in the APPN directory as a network node. Attempting to change the owning CP or network node server of a network node is not valid.
2
resourcename was identified in the APPN directory as an end node and the CPNAME operand was specified on the MODIFY DIRECTRY,UPDATE command. Attempting to change the owning CP of an end node is not valid.
3
resourcename was identified as a non-control point in the APPN directory and the CPNAME operand was not specified on the MODIFY DIRECTRY,UPDATE command. When resourcename is a non-control point, the CPNAME operand is required to identify the resource's owning control point (CP).

System action

The hierarchy for resourcename is not updated. Other processing continues.

Operator response

Use the DISPLAY ID command to obtain the current type of resourcename. Then, reenter the MODIFY DIRECTRY,UPDATE command with the proper operands specified. See the z/OS Communications Server: SNA Operation for more information on the MODIFY DIRECTRY command.
