IST1035I
ERROR WHILE {ADDING|DELETING} NETWORK netid {TO|FROM} GWN gatewaynode

Explanation

This message is the first in a group of messages that VTAM® issues when the COS table name (defined by the COSTAB operand) or the maximum subarea value (defined by the MAXSUBA operand) on the BUILD or NETWORK definition statement could not be defined to VTAM. A complete description of the message group follows.
IST1035I ERROR WHILE {ADDING|DELETING} NETWORK netid {TO|FROM} GWN gatewaynode
IST523I REASON = reason
IST1035I
  • netid is the dynamic network to which a connection was attempted. When gatewaynode is activated, this statement is processed. For gateway nodes, this is a model network statement.
  • gatewaynode is the gateway node for which network netid could not be added or deleted.
IST523I
  • reason indicates the reason for the failure, and is one of the following:
    COSTAB NOT FOUND
    The COS table name associated with a model network could not be found when VTAM attempted to add network netid.
    COSTAB USE COUNT OVERFLOW
    VTAM has exceeded its ability to record gatewaynode’s sharing of the COS table coded on the COSTAB operand.
    DUPLICATE COSTAB
    The COS table for netid and for gatewaynode has already been defined on a BUILD or NETWORK definition statement for gatewaynode.
    DUPLICATE MAXSUBA
    The maximum subarea value (MAXSUBA) has already been defined on a BUILD or NETWORK definition statement for gatewaynode or another gateway node.
    DUPLICATE SUBAREA
    The subarea value has already been defined on a BUILD or NETWORK definition statement for another gateway node.
    INSUFFICIENT STORAGE
    Network netid cannot be added or deleted because of insufficient storage.
    INSUFFICIENT STORAGE TO DEFINE COSTAB
    The COS table name (COSTAB) cannot be defined because of insufficient storage.
    INSUFFICIENT STORAGE TO DEFINE MAXSUBA
    The maximum subarea value (MAXSUBA) cannot be defined because of insufficient storage.
    INSUFFICIENT STORAGE TO DEFINE SUBAREA
    The subarea cannot be defined because of insufficient storage.
    MAXSUBA USE COUNT OVERFLOW
    VTAM has exceeded its ability to record gatewaynode’s sharing of the maximum subarea value coded on the MAXSUBA operand.
    MODEL NETWORK NOT FOUND
    The model network coded on the NETWORK definition statement with COPIES= was not defined for gatewaynode.
    UNEXPECTED RETURN CODE
    An unexpected return code was found while adding or deleting network netid.
    UNEXPECTED RETURN CODE DEFINING COSTAB
    An unexpected return code was found while defining the COS table.
    UNEXPECTED RETURN CODE DEFINING MAXSUBA
    An unexpected return code was found while defining the maximum subarea value.
    UNEXPECTED RETURN CODE DEFINING SUBAREA
    An unexpected return code was found while defining the subarea value.
    UNEXPECTED RETURN CODE DELETING COSTAB
    An unexpected return code was found while deleting the COS table.
    UNEXPECTED RETURN CODE DELETING MAXSUBA
    An unexpected return code was found while deleting the maximum subarea value.
    UNEXPECTED RETURN CODE DELETING SUBAREA
    An unexpected return code was found while deleting the subarea value.

System action

If this message was issued because network netid could not be added, all cross-network sessions destined to network netid will fail except for SSCP-SSCP sessions and for LU-LU sessions that use the default blank COS entry.

The system action depends on the value of reason:
COSTAB NOT FOUND
Network netid is ignored for gatewaynode.
COSTAB USE COUNT OVERFLOW
The COS table name is ignored. Even though the Class of Service table is defined for other active NCPs, it still cannot be used for this NCP definition, since its usage cannot be recorded to VTAM.
DUPLICATE COSTAB
The COS table name is ignored. The original COS table name for the NETID defined in this NCP definition is used.
DUPLICATE MAXSUBA
The maximum subarea value is ignored. A different value has already been defined successfully to this host, and cannot be changed or redefined for the network identified by the coded NETID until all networks that depend on this maximum subarea value are deactivated.
DUPLICATE SUBAREA
The subarea name is ignored. The original subarea name for the NETID defined in this NCP definition is used.
INSUFFICIENT STORAGE
Network netid cannot be added or deleted because of insufficient storage. Processing continues.
INSUFFICIENT STORAGE TO DEFINE COSTAB
The COS table name is ignored.
INSUFFICIENT STORAGE TO DEFINE MAXSUBA
The maximum subarea value is ignored. If this host resides in the gateway NCP’s native network, and will own links or link stations in the network identified by the NETID operand, it will be impossible to activate those links or link stations without knowledge of that network’s maximum subarea value. However, if the definition of another NCP has successfully defined the maximum subarea for the network, such link and link station activations will be possible, as long as that other NCP is not deactivated.
INSUFFICIENT STORAGE TO DEFINE SUBAREA
The subarea name is ignored.
MAXSUBA USE COUNT OVERFLOW
The maximum subarea value is ignored.
MODEL NETWORK NOT FOUND
The definition of network netid fails.
UNEXPECTED RETURN CODE
The definition of network netid fails.
UNEXPECTED RETURN CODE DEFINING COSTAB
The COS table name is not defined.
UNEXPECTED RETURN CODE DEFINING MAXSUBA
The maximum subarea value is not defined.
UNEXPECTED RETURN CODE DEFINING SUBAREA
The subarea value is not defined.
UNEXPECTED RETURN CODE DELETING COSTAB
The COS table name is not deleted.
UNEXPECTED RETURN CODE DELETING MAXSUBA
The maximum subarea value is not deleted.
UNEXPECTED RETURN CODE DELETING SUBAREA
The subarea value is not deleted.

Operator response

  • If text is COSTAB NOT FOUND, DUPLICATE COSTAB, or COSTAB USE COUNT OVERFLOW, enter a DISPLAY COS,ORIGIN=gatewaynode,NETID=* command, and save the system log for problem determination.
  • If text is INSUFFICIENT STORAGE…, deactivate all links to network netid, then reactivate those links later when more storage is available. Enter a DISPLAY BFRUSE command. Issue the DISPLAY STORUSE command to display storage usage for storage pools. Save the system log and request a dump for problem determination.
  • For all other reasons, save the system log for problem determination.

System programmer response

COSTAB NOT FOUND
Review the output from the DISPLAY COS command and contact the IBM® software support center.
COSTAB USE COUNT OVERFLOW
Review the output from the DISPLAY COS command. Restrict the usage of the COSTAB name for each network and NCP to less than 256. If many NCPs need to be active simultaneously, use different COSTAB names, each defining COSTABs for many other networks. Use the MODIFY TABLE command to correct problems.
DUPLICATE COSTAB
Identify the COSTAB name coded for the same NETID by reviewing all the BUILD and NETWORK definition statements preceding the definition statement specified for the indicated network, netid. Code only a single COSTAB name for any one network in this NCP definition. Use the MODIFY TABLE command to correct problems.
DUPLICATE MAXSUBA
Check to determine whether the maximum subarea value specified on the MAXSUBA keyword for the BUILD or NETWORK definition statement for the indicated NETID start option, netid is valid. This value must also be identical to the maximum subarea values on all other BUILD or NETWORK definition statements in this or another NCP definition that have ever been activated.
DUPLICATE SUBAREA
Check all the BUILD and NETWORK definition statements preceding the definition statement specified for the indicated network to identify the subarea value coded for the same NETID. Code only a single subarea value for any one network in this NCP definition. Be sure to check all definition statements that are active.
INSUFFICIENT STORAGE…
It may be necessary to cancel nonessential jobs or deactivate an unused part of the network to prevent further losses. You might have to halt and restart VTAM if there are too many failures.
You might want to redefine your buffer pool or CSA limits. If the start option cannot be modified using the MODIFY VTAMOPTS command, you must modify the VTAM start options file (ATCSTRxx) and restart VTAM to use the start option.
MAXSUBA USE COUNT OVERFLOW
Contact the IBM software support center.
MODEL NETWORK NOT FOUND
This error can be caused in one of two ways:
  • The NCP was generated with a definition statement that included a model network, but the model network was removed before the definition was activated by VTAM. If this is the case, restore the model network and activate the corrected definition statement.
  • There is an error in the NCP that is causing it to generate requests for no reason. Contact the IBM software support center.
