DFHZC3218 E DATE TIME APPLID Transaction CTIN - virtual terminal termid VTAM netname netname. A resource with the same name as the terminal is already installed.

Explanation

A CTIN install request has been received from a CICS client as a result of a CICS_EpiAddTerminal function or terminal emulator operation. CTIN specified that a virtual terminal termid should be autoinstalled. However another resource was installed with the same name after the CTIN transaction had ensured that the name was free.

netname is the VTAM netname of the CICS client.

System action

Exception trace point AP3026 is written.

The request to install the virtual terminal is rejected. A response code of ERROR and a reason code of ALREADYINSTALLED is sent to the client.

User response

Investigate where the duplicate resource came from. It is possible that the terminal/APPC autoinstall URM created the name dynamically. If NetName was specified in the CTIN parameters, ensure that the CICS client names do not conflict with existing CICS terminal or connection names. If NetName was not specified, examine the SIT VTPREFIX override to check that the URM does not create names starting with the VTPREFIX character.
