IST1444I
filename NOT LOADED – reason

Explanation

VTAM® issues this message when a CMIP services directory definition file (DDF) was not loaded successfully.

filename is the name of the directory definition file (ACYDDF).

reason displays the reason for the unsuccessful load. reason can be the following values:
DUPLICATE ATTRIBUTE AT RECORD record
The same attribute keyword was used more than once with a given value for "name".

record indicates the record number (line number) in the directory definition file for the last line of the attribute where the error is found.

ERROR READING FILE
A DASD or other error was encountered while reading ACYDDF.
FILE NOT FOUND
The file in the start procedure containing the ISTCMIP DD statement was not found.
INSUFFICIENT STORAGE
There is not enough internal table storage available for the number of entries in the directory definition file.
LINE EXCEEDS 2080 AT RECORD record
Continuation lines caused the total line length to exceed 2080.

record indicates the record number (line number) in the directory definition file for the last line of the attribute where the error is found.

LRECL EXCEEDS 2080
The logical record length of the file in the start procedure containing the ISTCMIP DD statement exceeded 2080.
NAME MISSING BEFORE RECORD record
record was something other than a "name" record. The prior "class" record needs a "name" record before any attributes can be defined.

record indicates the record number (line number) in the directory definition file for the last line of the attribute where the error is found.

NAME VALUE NOT VALID AT RECORD record
The value given for a "name" entry is not a valid CMIP distinguished name.

record indicates the record number (line number) in the directory definition file for the last line of the attribute where the error is found.

NO CLASS SPECIFIED
The first non-comment record of the directory definition file was a "name" record which had an unknown "class". The first non-comment record of the directory definition file must contain a "class" record to identify the class of subsequent entries.
SYNTAX ERROR AT RECORD record
A syntax error was detected in the record record of the directory definition file. The error might have been caused by one of the following:
  • There is only one word on the line
  • A quoted string exists that has not been terminated with another quote before the end of the line, including any valid continuation lines.
  • The keyword was "class" and the following value was neither "aetitle" nor "managed" (object).
  • The conversion of a distinguished name to a standard internal representation failed because the name had both kinds of quotes in it.
  • The conversion of a distinguished name to a standard internal representation failed because the name had bad syntax.
  • The key value for associationKey in a DDF entry is not one of the three special values ('*' '–' '.') and is not exactly 16 hexadecimal digits.
  • The value for timeSync is too large (greater than 86,400).
  • The value for timeSync is not numeric.
  • The attribute keyword (first word of the line) was not recognized as a valid one. (This might be due to a mistake in spelling or capitalization.)

record indicates the record number (line number) in the directory definition file for the last line of the attribute where the error is found.

System action

Processing continues. If CMIP services is just being started, initialization will not complete successfully. If CMIP services was started earlier with a valid directory definition file, it will continue to run with the previous definitions.

Operator response

Save the system log for problem determination.

System programmer response

Action depends on the value for reason:
DUPLICATE ATTRIBUTE AT RECORD record
Remove one of the duplicate attributes, then issue the MODIFY TABLE command or restart CMIP services.
ERROR READING FILE
Correct the problem, then issue the MODIFY TABLE command or restart CMIP services.
FILE NOT FOUND
Verify that the name of the directory definition file has the correct name, then issue the MODIFY TABLE command or restart CMIP services.
INSUFFICIENT STORAGE
Wait until enough storage has been made available, then issue the MODIFY TABLE command or restart CMIP services. Halting and restarting CMIP services could free up the current copy of the DDF table, which might allow the new table to be read. See z/OS Communications Server: SNA Diagnosis Vol 1, Techniques and Procedures for more information on how to correct storage problems.
LINE EXCEEDS 2080 AT RECORD record
Shorten the line, then issue the MODIFY TABLE command or restart CMIP services.
LRECL EXCEEDS 2080
Create a version of the directory definition file with a logical record length less than 2080 (using line continuation as required), then issue the MODIFY TABLE command or restart CMIP services.
NAME MISSING BEFORE RECORD record
Correct the problem, then issue the MODIFY TABLE command or restart CMIP services.
NAME VALUE NOT VALID AT RECORD record
Correct the problem, then issue the MODIFY TABLE command. If the problem persists, restart CMIP services.
NO CLASS SPECIFIED
Add the proper "class" record before the first "name" record, then issue the MODIFY TABLE command or restart CMIP services.
SYNTAX ERROR AT RECORD record
Correct the problem, then issue the MODIFY TABLE command or restart CMIP services.
