Explanation

VTAM® issues this message when an I/O error occurred on a BSC 3270 terminal or control unit. This is probably a hardware error.

terminalname is the name of a terminal or control unit. If the network where the resource resides is known to VTAM, terminalname is issued as a network-qualified name in the form netid.name.

command is the basic transmission unit (BTU) command and modifier. It represents the command that the NCP received when the I/O error occurred. For more information, see NCP and EP Reference Summary and Data Areas for the 3725 and 3745.

ncp_response is the system and extended response that the NCP sends upon receiving the command. For more information, see NCP and EP Reference Summary and Data Areas for the 3725 and 3745.

bsc_status is the BSC status information. For more information, see the 3174 Functional Description
