DFS064I DESTINATION CAN NOT BE FOUND OR CREATED, DEST=destination [I: sss1/name1, D: sss2/name2]

Explanation

The first eight characters of the input could not be recognized as a valid transaction, logical terminal name, or command.

In the message text:
sss1/name1
The source SYSID and source LTERM name for the input system.
sss2/name2
The destination SYSID and destination LTERM or TRAN code of the processing system.

This information appears only when the error is detected in a remote system (sss2).

destination
The name of the destination that could not be found or created.
This message can occur if all the following conditions are true:
  • A terminal is not in a conversational or preset mode.
  • The Global Physical Terminal Input edit routine did not exist for the terminal.
  • The MFS bypass with MODname DFS.EDTN is used.

When all three of these conditions are true, the Attention Identification (AID) byte is the first item in the data area. It is rejected as an invalid transaction code.

This message can also be issued if either of the following conditions are true:
  • The Message Control/Error Exit routine (DFSCMUX0) is customized in the receiving system to specify an incorrect exit flag.
  • The exit flag is correct, but an error was found while IMS was performing the requested action and IMS performed the associated default action instead.

For CPIC/APPC transactions failing with DFS064 as a consequence of the TP profile (TPN) being deleted, the message contains only the first eight characters of the TPName that was not found. Use this information to identify the resource that was not found.

System action

The data entered is ignored.

Operator response

(local/remote terminal) Reenter the data correctly. If the MFS bypass was not used, establish preset mode by using the /SET TRANSACTION command. If it still fails, notify the System Programmer.

(master terminal) Inform the system programmer.

If the optional part of this message is printed, notify the system programmer that the blocks are not synchronized.
