FSUM1240
Hostname name could not be resolved: string

Explanation

A syslog configuration statement specified a hostname that could not be resolved to an IP address.
name
The hostname that could not be resolved to an IP address.
string
The text that describes the problem.

System action

The syslog configuration statement that references hostname, name, is disabled and processing continues. Periodically, syslogd will retry hostname resolution and if the retry is successful then message FSUM1241 will be issued.

Operator response

If the syslog configuration file has not been changed and this hostname was previously resolved successfully, this might indicate a problem with the system resolver or a local or remote domain name server. If the syslog configuration file was recently changed, contact the system programmer.

System programmer response

Verify that the hostname, name, is a valid hostname and is known to the system resolver or domain name system. If the hostname is no longer valid, the syslog configuration file should be modified to remove or correct the configuration statement containing the hostname. If the hostname is valid, refer to z/OS® Communications Server Diagnosis Guide, Diagnosing resolver problems.
