Operation Messages

IBM® Connect:Direct® operation diagnostic messages are formatted into multiple lines so that errors and exception conditions are easy to read. Operator messages are sent to:

  • The route code given in the IBM Connect:Direct initialization parameters
  • The ddname NDMLOG, if it is allocated

    The COPY termination message (SVTM052I) is displayed in four lines, as follows:

  • The first line shows the step label, the operation (COPY), the Process name and number, the associated node name, and the session class.
  • The second line shows the FROM file name.
  • The third line shows the TO file name.
  • The fourth line shows the completion code and message ID. If the COPY does not complete successfully, the first four positions of the last line contain the “####” flag.

    When session errors occur, the error message is formatted into two lines, as follows:

  • The first line gives as much information as possible in the same format as the COPY termination message (Process name and number, and associated node name).
  • The second line gives the text of the error message. The first four positions of the second line contain the “****” flag.

The following example shows two IBM Connect:Direct operation error messages following a COPY termination message.

SVTM052I STEP1  COPY  PROCESS1( 126)PNODE=CD.NODE.A  (002)
    FROM  SYSA.SAM.DATA.SET
    TO    SYSB.TEST.SAM.DATA.SET
    #### COMPLETED 00000010/SCPA010I
SVTM045I              PROCESS1( 126)PNODE=CD.NODE.A
    **** RPLERRCK:CD/CD SESSION FAILURE
SVTM050I              PROCESS1( 126)PNODE=CD.NODE.A
