VTAM® issues this message in response to a MODIFY NOTRACE,TYPE=VTAM,OPTION=FORCE command when the VTAM internal trace (VIT) is not waiting to terminate. OPTION=FORCE is only valid when you previously tried (unsuccessfully) to stop the VIT using OPTION=END.
The MODIFY NOTRACE command is rejected. Processing continues.
Enter a MODIFY NOTRACE,TYPE=VTAM,OPTION=END command to stop the VTAM internal trace. This should terminate the VIT. If it does not, reenter the MODIFY NOTRACE,TYPE=VTAM,OPTION=FORCE command.
See the z/OS Communications Server: SNA Diagnosis Vol 2, FFST Dumps and the VIT for information about analyzing dumps and about analyzing storage using the VIT analysis tool, if external trace is active.
