DFS2140 DESTINATION name STOPPED, REASON CODE xxx.

Explanation

IMS stopped the destination identified in the message at the request of the partner. The reason code xxx is the number of the IMS message read from the block, but not processed.

System action

IMS stops the indicated block. An error message, with the number shown as the REASON CODE, is sent to the master terminal in the partner system.

Operator response

Restart the MSNAME and notify the system programmer.

System programmer response

If the reason code xxx is 2146, the partner IMS system detected an INVALID DATA BLOCK error. Both sides of the link discarded the message and the sending path MSNAME was stopped.

For reason code 1945, the receiving IMS system encountered a QMGR/CQS write error while putting the message to the message queue. The message is returned to the message queue to be sent again, if the MSNAME path is restarted, or to be removed from the queued by the operator.

For all DFS2140 errors, both sides logged type 6701 ID=MSSx (x=1,2, or 3) log records. See message DFS1945, DFS2146, or whatever message key equals the reason code, for more information.

Problem determination

Contact the system programmer if the error persists. If the error was encountered by an MSC link, the following CLBTEMP fields are set in the LLB block in the 6701MSS1 record:
  • CLBTEMP1 = Reason code for the DFS2140 message
  • CLBTEMP3 = Message key = x'0000085C' = decimal 2140
  • CLBTEMP4 = Module ID; that is, C'CMSI' = DFSCMSI0 or C'CMSP' = DFSCMSP0
  • CLBTEMP5 = If applicable, R5 or R14 BALR offset into the module that detected the error
