Explanation
This message is the first in a group of messages
that VTAM® issues in response
to a major node activation or a MODIFY TABLE command when the activation
of table
tablename failed.
IST979I BUILD FAILED FOR TABLE tablename
IST523I REASON = reason
[IST323I LABEL = labelname – MACRO = macrotype – KEYWORD = keyword]
IST979I - tablename is the name of the table that failed
and is a model name table, an associated LU table, or a message flooding
table.
IST523I - reason indicates the cause of the failure.
- Most of the reasons involve macro coding errors, which may show
up at this time because the tables are not pre-assembled.
- Other errors such as insufficient storage and open failures cause
activation to fail even though there are no errors in the table definition.
reason can be one of the following:
- DUPLICATE ENTRY LABEL
- The same label appears on more than one table entry macro (MDLENT
or ASLENT) in the table.
- DUPLICATE PARAMETER
- A valid keyword has been coded multiple times on a single macro.
- DUPLICATE PLU VALUE
- The same PLU name appears on more than one PLU subentry macro
(MDLPLU or ASLPLU) following a single entry macro (MDLENT or ASLENT).
- EXTRA VALUE
- Multiple values were coded on a keyword that does not allow multiple
values.
- INSUFFICIENT STORAGE
- VTAM was unable to allocate
storage for the table.
- INVALID LABEL
- The label on the macro is invalid or a MDLENT or ASLENT macro
was coded without a label.
- INVALID MACRO
- The resource definition contains an invalid macro or multiple
MDLTAB or ASLTAB macros.
- INVALID PARAMETER
- The macro has an invalid keyword.
- INVALID VALUE
- The keyword has an invalid value coded.
- LIST VALUE **** IS IN CIRCULAR LIST OR MULTIPLE LISTS
- The LIST keyword on a FLDENT macro in the message flooding table
referred to a message that was in more than one list.
- LIST VALUE **** WAS NOT FOUND
- The LIST keyword on a FLDENT macro in the message flooding table
referenced a message that was not also in the table.
- MACRO SEQUENCE ERROR
- The second macro in the resource definition is either MDLPLU or
ASLPLU. These macros must be preceded by a table entry macro (MDLENT
or ASLENT).
- MISSING PLU PARAMETER
- A MDLPLU or ASLPLU macro has been coded without the PLU keyword.
- OPEN FOR VTAM DATA SET
SYS1.VTAMLST FAILED
- VTAM could not open the
member of the data set containing the table.
- SYNTAX ERROR
- A keyword on a macro has a syntax error.
- TABLE CONTAINS NO USEFUL INFORMATION
- The table is logically empty.
- For a model name table, VTAM could
not find a MDLENT or MDLPLU macro with a valid MODEL keyword value.
- For an associated LU table, VTAM could
not find an ASLENT or ASLPLU macro with a valid PRINTER1 or PRINTER2
keyword value.
- For a message flooding table, VTAM could
not find a FLDENT macro with a valid MESSAGE keyword value.
- TABLE SIZE OF X'xxxxxxxx' IS INVALID
- The table has exceeded the limitation of 16 megabytes (hexadecimal 00FFFFFF).
IST323I - If this message is displayed, it identifies the location of the
error in tablename.
System action
Processing continues, but tablename cannot
be used to supply model terminal support information.
