Explanation
VTAM® issues
this message in response to a failed activation or inactivation request
for an HPR/IP (Enterprise Extender) connection.
- connection_type can be one of the following:
- CALL
- Indicates the failure of an activation or inactivation request
for an HPR/IP (Enterprise Extender) connection.
- ENABLE
- Indicates the failure of an activation request for an incoming
call over an HPR/IP (Enterprise Extender) connection.
- PORT
- Indicates the failure of an activation or inactivation request
for an HPR/IP (Enterprise Extender) connection.
- node_name is the name of an external communication
adapter (XCA) major node that defines an HPR/IP (Enterprise Extender)
port.
- status_code is the DLC status code and it indicates the cause
of a failure detected by the connection manager. See z/OS Communications Server: IP and SNA Codes for a description of the DLC status codes.
System action
For call failures, the dial or activation of
the PU fails. For enable and disable failures, no incoming calls
can be accepted from the HPR/IP (Enterprise Extender) connection.
For port failures, all lines and PUs for the port will be deactivated.
Operator response
If status_code indicates
that the failure is a result of a temporary condition, reactivate
the PU.
System programmer response
If failure persists after reactivation
attempts, examine status_code to determine whether
the failure is a result of a system definition error or a network
error. If the failure is a result of a system definition error, correct
the error. If the failure is a result of a network error, contact
the IP network provider.
