DFHZC0128 applid Cannot reestablish persisting sessions - VTAM not responding. Module name: module

Explanation

CICS is processing VTAM persisting sessions. However it has issued a VTAM macro and has waited for 8 minutes for the response.

System action

If this occurs during start up, CICS terminates. If this occurs during dynamic open, the VTAM ACB is closed and CICS continues without VTAM.

A dump is taken for this message in both cases. Message DFHME0116, which contains the symptom string for this problem, is produced.

User response

You can restart CICS again immediately, or wait for the persistent sessions to time out and then restart CICS.

If this problem recurs you need to find out why VTAM is not responding to the INQUIRE or OPNDST macro (if the message is issued by DFHZGRP), or the CLSDST or TERMSESS macro (if the message is issued by DFHZGUB).

You can determine which macro is not responding by examining the TCP section of the dump and looking at the RPLs in the PS POOL labeled PS_RPL. The first RPL is for use by INQUIRE or OPNDST, the next 10 by CLSDST or TERMSESS.
