Message IST882I

Message IST882I tells the operator that VTAM® is waiting for a device end from the link station identified in message IST881I.

You should check to see if the link station is online. If it is, then there is a possibility that NCP is being dumped or loaded over another channel adapter, and no further action is necessary.

Note: If the link station is not operating, not physically connected, or not online, VTAM never receives the device end. In those cases, you should issue a VARY INACT,FORCE command to deactivate the link station.
