606: SSI_VERIFY_FAILED

A VERIFY call to the MVS subsystem interface (SSI) to obtain the current CICS® SVC number failed.

System Action

The Initialize_User request is terminated. The return code from the SSI call is returned in subreason field-1 of the return area. This error occurs before the external CICS interface dump services are initialized, therefore EXCI issues an MVS user abend (0405) to force a SYSMDUMP.

User Response

Locate the return code in the dump, and use this with the rest of the dump and SSI documentation to determine why the VERIFY request failed. When the problem is resolved, restart the client application program.
