IST1257I
SEQUENCE NOT VALID, STATEMENT IGNORED, SKIPPING TO EOF

Explanation

This message is the first in a group of messages that VTAM® issues when the network node server list contains NETSRVR statements that are out of order. All NETSRVR statements that explicitly name a network node to act as server must precede a NETSRVR statement that does not explicitly name a network node.

A complete description of the message group follows the example. 
IST1257I   SEQUENCE NOT VALID, STATEMENT IGNORED, SKIPPING TO EOF
IST701I    CONFIG configname LABEL = labelname
           STMT TYPE = statementname
IST314I    END
IST701I
  • configname is the name assigned to the VBUILD statement.
  • labelname is the name of the network node specified on the NETSRVR statement.
  • statementname is the NETSRVR statement.

System action

Any NETSRVR statements following the NETSTVR statement that does not explicitly name a network node are ignored. Processing continues.

Operator response

The system programmer should modify the network node server list. After the list has been modified, issue VARY ACT,ID=member_name, where member_name is the name of the definition list member that contains the edited network node server list.

System programmer response

Correct the ordering of the NETSRVR definition statements that comprise the network node server list. See the z/OS Communications Server: SNA Resource Definition Reference for information on building the network node server list.
