IST155I
SUBTASK subtask HAS ABENDED, CODE code

Explanation

VTAM® issues this message when subtask abnormally terminates.

code is the system abend code and indicates the reason for the abend. Check your operating system abend code manual for a description of code.

System action

The system action is determined by the value of subtask:
ISTCPCRY
VTAM processing continues. This subtask is invoked to perform cryptographic management services.
ISTENQIO
VTAM terminates the disk I/O processing associated with a specific instance of the subtask. This subtask is invoked during initialization or by the MODIFY CHKPT command.
ISTINCXI
VTAM terminates the dump (static or dynamic). For a static dump, deactivation of the NCP continues. This subtask is invoked by the MODIFY DUMP command.
ISTINCXM
VTAM terminates the remote static dump, dynamic dump, or dump transfer. This subtask is invoked by the MODIFY DUMP command.
ISTINC05
Loading of the communication controller is terminated. The command fails. This subtask is invoked by conditional, unconditional, and nondisruptive loads of a 37XX communications controller.
ISTINCR6
The configuration might not be restored to checkpointed status (START command) or the major node checkpoint record might be lost (VARY command), but processing of the command continues. This subtask is invoked by a checkpoint on a major node.
ISTINCOQ
The module assumes a default reply. This subtask is invoked by an attempt by a VTAM module to write a message that requires an operator reply.
ISTINCY0
If an application program issued an open destination (OPNDST), the request fails. Verify that the physical path to the control unit is available. Make sure the unit is online and is operational. If the operator issued a VARY ACT or VARY INACT command, processing continues, but the connection or disconnection of the 3791 fails. This subtask is invoked by a dial abandon, a dial contact, a dial out, or a dial enable answer.

Operator response

Save the system log for problem determination. Check your operating system abend code manual for a description of code.

System programmer response

Use the output provided and the meaning of code to assist in determining the cause of the abend. Make sure that the failing job step includes a SYSABEND DD statement. When the error is corrected, ask the operator to try the command again.

See the z/OS Communications Server: SNA Diagnosis Vol 1, Techniques and Procedures for information on the abend procedure.
