command FAILED linkstation subarea1,nodename1 subarea2,nodename2

Explanation

The command for linkstation failed because of a mismatch between information received in the CONTACTED (LOADED) RU and the information the SSCP already had about the contacted adjacent node. The adjacent node in the SSCP table (the subarea or name from the CONTACTED RU) is not a PU type 4, or the subarea or name in the RU does not match the subarea defined to VTAM®.

subarea1 and nodename1 are taken from the RU. subarea2 and nodename2 are taken from the definitions defined to VTAM. In either case, if the name of the adjacent node is not available then ***NA*** will be displayed. This can occur if the RU does not have a name field or if VTAM knows the adjacent node only by subarea and not by name.

System action

The link station is deactivated.

Operator response

If the name value is supplied and valid, use the DISPLAY ID command to display the nodes. Also enter a DISPLAY STATIONS command. Save the system log for problem determination.

System programmer response

There are two distinct nodes in the network with the same name or subarea. Identify the one in error and correct it.
