Sense code 0840

Procedure not valid for resource: The named RU is not supported in the receiver for this type of resource. For example, (1) SETCV specifies boundary function support for a Type 1 node, but the capability is not supported by the receiving node or (2) the NCP PU receiving an EXECTEST or TESTMODE is not the primary NCP PU for the target link.

Bytes 2 and 3 following the sense code contain sense-code-specific information.
0000
No specific code applies.
0001
Surrogate session setup failed.
0002
Link cannot be used because it supports only HPR routing and the session requires non-HPR routing.

VTAM® hint: A possible cause of this error is that a session request was received from an adjacent VTAM subarea node by a VTAM APPN node that supports only HPR routing, such as a VTAM node that communicates in native mode across an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) network.

0003
Link not valid: The link to which the PU is to be added is not an SNA link. Only SNA links are supported.
0004
Link not valid: A request that is allowed only for a nonswitched link was received for a link that is defined to the receiver as switched.
0005
Resource was not dynamically added: This request works only with resources that were added through dynamic reconfiguration.
0007
Resource not found: A DELETE or FIND could not be satisfied because the specified entry does not exist in the receiving directory.
VTAM hint:
  • VTAM cannot find a model definition to build a dynamic application program when the dynamic application program requests to open its ACB.
  • VTAM cannot find a dynamic application program when the dynamic application program requests to close its ACB.
0008
The directory entry cannot be deleted. The network node received a DELETE with a delete entry condition indicating that the entry can be deleted only if it is a leaf. The entry is not a leaf; therefore, the DELETE is rejected.
0009
RNAA(Move) received a resource that was added through dynamic reconfiguration. Such a resource may not be moved through RNAA(Move).
000A
Procedure invalid for resource: A PN supporting independent LUs has dialed into a boundary function that does not support sessions with independent LUs. The SSCP cannot activate the independent LUs.
000B
The REGISTER request specifies that a unique directory entry is required (for example, the REGISTER is for an LU), but there is a duplicate in the directory data base.
0010
A SETCV with control vector X'43' has been received for a nonswitched resource.
0011
A dynamically added or switched resource has not yet been activated.
0012
A request was received that is allowed only for a primary link station. The request must utilize the service link and that link is defined as secondary.
0013
A CONNOUT request was received that contained an invalid X.21 call type.
0014
A CONNOUT or CONTACT was received specifying that the receiver is to designate itself as an APPN end node in XID3s that it sends to an attached APPN or LEN.
0015
This sense data value is generated whenever an APPN session route must be calculated in two pieces (using two separate RSCVs) and it is determined that the two RSCVs identify a common node; that is, the session route passes through a given node twice.
0016
This sense data value is generated whenever an RSCV is precalculated because the OLU or DLU was thought to be in a subarea network and it is determined (based on the RSCV) that the location of the DLU is incorrect; that is, the RSCV indicates that the DLU is in the APPN network, but the DLU is really in a subarea network, or vice versa.
0017
A session initiation request was received for a multinode persistent enabled application program with a precalculated RSCV, but no HPR connection can be set up using the precalculated route.

VTAM Information: The Locate is resubmitted and the RSCV recalculated using a set of tail vectors that VTAM supplies on the Locate reply.

VTAM hint: The error occurred because a VTAM V4R2 or VTAM V4R1 node calculated the RSCV.
