DFS4862W EDIT ROUTINE xxxxxxxx UNAVAILABLE FOR NODE yyyyyyyy

Explanation

The physical terminal input or output edit routine that was defined for the terminal could not be loaded during IMS initialization. The routine was defined by the EDIT= keyword in the IMS System Definition TYPE macro associated with the indicated terminal for static terminals, or in the EDIT= keyword of the ETO node descriptor for dynamic terminals.

In the message text:
xxxxxxxx
Indicates the physical terminal edit routine name.
yyyyyyyy
Indicates the terminal node name.

System action

Static terminals that are defined to use the physical terminal edit routine (EDIT=YES specified on the TERMINAL macro) do not have access to the input or output routine. The terminal is treated as if EDIT=NO was specified on the TERMINAL macro. Message DFS1934E is issued to indicate that the edit routine was not loaded.

Dynamic terminals that are defined to use the physical terminal edit routine (EDIT= was defined on the node descriptor) do not have access to the input or output routine. The terminal is treated as if EDIT= was not specified on the node descriptor. If the node descriptor is properly defined in the DFSDSCMx or DFSDSCTy member of the IMS.PROCLIB data set, message DFS3660W is issued to indicate that the edit routine is ignored for the descriptor.

IMS continues initialization or is restarted.

Output destination

The System Console

System programmer response

Perform the following steps:
  1. Check message DFS1934E or DFS3660W that was issued previously. Both messages indicate which physical terminal edit routines could not be loaded.
  2. Make sure that the physical terminal edit routine exists in one of the IMS.SDFSRESL concatenated data sets.
  3. Identify the cause to the load failure and correct the failure.
  4. For dynamic terminals, delete the terminal. For SLUP and FINANCE terminals, issue the CHANGE NODE CLODESESS command to allow the terminal to be deleted if necessary.
  5. Warm or cold start the IMS system again for the exit routine to be loaded.
