EZD0044I   INTERFACE interface_name NOT ALLOWED - reason

Explanation

The stack could not define the interface because the interface did not adhere to the rules for defining multiple VLAN interfaces to the same OSA-Express port or HiperSockets™ CHPID. See the information about OSA VLAN or HiperSockets and VLAN in z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Guide for more information about these rules. This message provides more details for message EZZ0618I.

In the message text:
interface_name
The name of the interface.
reason
The reason for the rejection. Possible values are:
NO VLAN ID

NO VLAN ID FOR AN EARLIER DEFINITION
A previous INTERFACE statement for the same OSA-Express port did not specify the VLANID parameter.
VLAN ID NOT UNIQUE
The VLANID parameter on the INTERFACE statement conflicts with the VLANID parameter on a previous INTERFACE statement for the same OSA-Express port.
NOT VMAC ROUTEALL
The INTERFACE statement did not specify the VMAC parameter value ROUTEALL.
NOT VMAC ROUTEALL FOR AN EARLIER DEFINITION
A previous INTERFACE statement for the same OSA-Express port did not specify the VMAC parameter value ROUTEALL.
NO SUBNET MASK

NO SUBNET MASK FOR AN EARLIER DEFINITION
A previous INTERFACE statement for the same OSA-Express port did not specify a subnet mask.
SUBNET NOT UNIQUE
The subnet specified by the INTERFACE overlaps with the subnet specified by a previous INTERFACE statement for the same OSA-Express port.
EXCEEDED MAXIMUM NUMBER OF VLANS
There are already 32 INTERFACE statements for the same OSA-Express port for this IP version.
