Parameter (with pointer only) not valid: The request contained
a fixed- or variable-length field whose contents are not valid or
not supported by the NAU that received the request.
Bytes 2 and 3 following the sense code contain sense-code-specific
information.
- 000A
- The SLU maximum RU size is not valid.
- 000B
- The PLU maximum RU size is not valid.
- nnnn
- Bytes 2 and 3 contain a two-byte binary count that indexes (zero-origin)
the first byte of the fixed- or variable-length field that has contents
that are not valid.
Note: This sense code is not used to report a value
that is not valid in an MS major vector. If the value that is not
valid occurs in a formatted MS subvector, sense code X'086B' is
used. If it occurs in an unformatted subvector, sense code X'0870' is
used.
VTAM® hint: Sense
code 083500
nn indicates that the BIND contains
parameters that are not valid and supplies an index (
nn)
into the BIND that identifies the bytes that the BIND receiver cannot
interpret. A buffer trace can provide more problem determination information.
Note: The offset seen in the buffer trace might differ from the offset
seen in the IST663I message group and seen by the application.
