VTAM TERMINATION IN PROGRESS

Explanation

VTAM® is terminating, either because of an unrecoverable error or because the operator issued a HALT command.

System action

The reason for termination of VTAM can be one of the following:
  • The operator entered the HALT command.
  • The operator entered the HALT QUICK command.
  • The operator entered the HALT CANCEL command.
  • VTAM detected an unrecoverable error.

For detailed descriptions of the processing of the different HALT commands, see z/OS Communications Server: SNA Operation. If VTAM detected an unrecoverable error, the processing is similar to that which follows the HALT CANCEL command. See that description in z/OS Communications Server: SNA Operation.

Operator response

If this message is the result of a HALT command, no response is required. If it is caused by an abnormal termination, determine the cause of the termination from prior messages.

System programmer response

None.
