  • This message identifies the type of information in the display and is always TDU DIAGNOSTICS for this message group.
IST1777I
  • This is a header message for the information about topology resources in the TDUs that were received most frequently and that have TDUDIAG resource sequence number (RSN) update information saved in the topology database. The topology resources are displayed in the IST1778I messages that follow. These messages are displayed when FORMAT=SHORT is specified or the default FORMAT value is taken.
  • ACC is the abbreviation for ACCEPTED.
  • REJ is the abbreviation for REJECTED.
IST1778I
  • One IST1778I is issued for each topology resource that is displayed in a subgroup when the FORMAT=SHORT operand is specified or the default FORMAT value is taken.
  • The NUM operand can be specified on the DISPLAY command to limit the number of topology resources that are displayed. The default value is 10 and the maximum value is 50. If the number of topology resources on the list since the TDU information and TDU counters were last reset is smaller than the number requested on the display command, the number of IST1778I messages that are displayed in the subgroup will be smaller than the NUM value that was specified.
  • cp_name is the network-qualified CP name of the node, if the resource that is displayed is a node. If the resource that is displayed is a TG, cp_name is the network-qualified CP name of the TG origin node.
  • rsn is the resource sequence number (RSN) expressed in decimal.
  • destination_cp is the network-qualified CP name of the TG's destination node if the resource that is displayed is a TG. If the resource is a node, ***NA*** is displayed.
  • tgn is the transmission group number that is associated with the TG that is displayed. If the resource is a node, NA is displayed.
  • If the subgroup displays the information about topology resources in the TDUs that were received most frequently:
    • count1 is the total number of inbound TDUs that were accepted for this resource at the time that the displayed TDU was received. Inbound TDUs are accepted when they contain new information that causes the resource record to be updated.
    • count2 is the total number of inbound TDUs that were rejected for this resource at the time that the displayed TDU was received. Inbound TDUs are rejected when they contain inconsistent information that causes outbound TDUs to be sent as corrections.
  • If the subgroup displays the information about topology resources in the TDUs that were sent most frequently:
    • count1 is the total number of outbound TDUs that were sent for this resource at the time that the displayed TDU was sent.
    • count2 is the total number of inbound TDUs that were received for this resource at the time that the displayed TDU was sent.

Tip: A RSN value of ******** or TDU counter values of ***** indicates that the values are greater than the available space for those values to be displayed in message IST1778I. You can enter the command with the FORMAT=LONG operand to display these values in a format that includes two lines of output for each resource.

IST1780I, IST2308I
  • These messages indicate that the TDU diagnostic information is about topology resources that were included in topology database updates (TDUs) most frequently, and that have saved TDUDIAG resource sequence number (RSN) update information.
IST2274I
  • This is a header message for TDU diagnostic summary information.
IST2275I
  • This message contains the date and time when all the TDU information and TDU counters were reset. All TDU information and TDU counters are reset every 24 hours when garbage collection runs, or when a DISPLAY NET,TOPO,LIST=TDUINFO,CLEAR=YES or a DISPLAY NET,TOPO,LIST=TDUDIAG,CLEAR=YES command is entered. See DATE and TIME formats for information about the date and time values.
IST2276I
  • This message indicates that no corruption of topology control vectors was detected since VTAM was started.
IST2277I
  • This is a header message for a message subgroup that displays information about topology resources that have control vectors in the topology database that have possibly been corrupted.
  • Because the topology control vectors contain the resource sequence number (RSN) for a node or TG, which determines the processing of a TDU, it is possible that control vector corruption could cause a TDU war. The most probable cause of control vector corruption is a storage overlay.
IST2278I
  • This message displays the date and time that VTAM was started. See DATE and TIME formats for information about the date and time values.
  • Unlike the lists of topology resources in the TDUs that were received or sent most frequently, or with RSNs that were updated by this node, the list of topology resources with possible topology control vector corruption is never cleared and includes any possible corruption detection since the start of VTAM.
IST2279I
  • This is a header message for the information about topology resources with possible topology control vector corruption that is displayed in the IST2280I messages that follow.
IST2280I
  • One IST2280I is displayed for each topology resource that has control vectors that have possibly been corrupted.
  • Information about possible corrupted control vectors is maintained from the start of VTAM and is not deleted when TDU information is reset. All topology resources with possible corrupted control vectors are displayed in this subgroup, regardless of the reset of TDU information.
  • The NUM operand can be specified on the DISPLAY command to limit the number of topology resources that are displayed. The default value is 10 and the maximum value is 50. If the number of topology resources on the list since the start of VTAM is smaller than the number requested on the display command, the number of IST2280I messages that are displayed in the subgroup will be smaller than the NUM value that was specified.
  • cp_name is the network-qualified CP name of the node, if the resource that is displayed is a node. If the resource that is displayed is a TG, cp_name is the network-qualified CP name of the TG origin node.

  • tgn is the transmission group number that is associated with the TG that is displayed. If the resource is a node, NA is displayed.
  • Time detected is the date and time possible corruption of control vectors for the topology resource was detected. See DATE and TIME formats for information about the date and time values.
IST2283I
  • This message is displayed when no TDUDIAG RSN update information exists for any of the topology resources that have been received, sent, or had RSNs updated since the TDU information and TDU counters were last reset. Message IST2275I displays the date and time of the last reset.
IST2284I
  • This message indicates that possible topology control vector corruption was detected for a node or TG.
IST2286I
  • This is a header message for message subgroups that display information about topology resources in the TDUs that were received in inbound TDUs most frequently and have TDUDIAG RSN update information saved in the topology database.

IST2288I
  • This is a header message for the information about topology resources in the TDUs that were sent most frequently and have TDUDIAG RSN update information saved in the topology database. The topology resources are displayed in the IST1778I messages that follow. These messages are displayed when FORMAT=SHORT is specified or the default FORMAT value is taken.
  • REC is the abbreviation for RECEIVED.
IST2289I
  • This is a header message for information about topology resources with RSNs that were updated by this node and that have TDUDIAG RSN update information saved in the topology database.
  • The first topology resource that is displayed in the subgroup is the resource with a RSN that was updated most frequently. The last topology resource that is displayed in the subgroup is the resource with a RSN that was updated least frequently.
IST2290I
  • tdudiag_value is the user-defined TDUDIAG start option value, specified on the START command or in the start list, and specifies when TDU diagnostic information is included with node or TG control vectors within a TDU. See the TDUDIAG start option information in z/OS Communications Server: SNA Resource Definition Reference. Possible values can be one of the following:
    A decimal value in the range of 1-65535
    This is a threshold number of times that this network node has updated the resource sequence number (RSN) for a topology resource since the last time that TDU information was reset. When this threshold value is reached for a node or TG, TDU diagnostic information is included in the outbound TDU if the RSN is updated.
    ALWAYS
    TDU diagnostic information is always appended with the topology control vectors included in a TDU for a topology resource when the RSN for that resource is updated by this network node.
    NEVER

Operator response

If you are displaying TDU diagnostic information because of performance degradation of the APPN network, use the information about display TDU information in z/OS Communications Server: SNA Diagnosis Vol 1, Techniques and Procedures, and do the following:

  1. Repeat the display several times to see if there is a pattern of excessive TDU activity for a topology resource.
  2. Enter the DISPLAY NET,TOPO,LIST=TDUINFO,SCOPE=ACTIVITY command to see the topology resources that have the most frequent TDU activity.
  3. If a node or TG is identified that has excessive TDU activity, the following displays might provide information about the network nodes that are causing the performance degradation (TDU war):
    • DISPLAY NET,TOPO,LIST=TDUDIAG provides a summary of nodes and TGs that have saved TDU diagnostic information.
    • DISPLAY NET,TOPO,LIST=TDUDIAG,ID=cp_name provides details about the saved TDU diagnostic information for a node.
    • DISPLAY NET,TOPO,LIST=TDUDIAG,ORIG=orig_cp,DEST=dest_cp,TGN=tgn provides details about saved TDU diagnostic information for a TG.
  4. If you can identify the network nodes that are involved in the TDU war, bring down the CP-CP sessions from one of the network nodes involved to all other network nodes in the network or subnetwork.
  5. If you cannot stop the TDU war, save the system log and request a dump for problem determination. Contact the system programmer.

Tip: On the DISPLAY NET,TOPO,LIST=TDUDIAG summary command output, a RSN value of ******** or TDU counter values of ***** indicates that the value is greater than the available space for the value to be displayed in message IST1778I or IST2293I. You can clear the TDU counters, but not the RSN, with the CLEAR=YES operand specified on either the DISPLAY TOPO,LIST=TDUINFO command or the DISPLAY TOPO,LIST=TDUDIAG summary command. Alternately, you can enter the command with the FORMAT=LONG operand to display these values in a format that includes two lines of output for each resource.

System programmer response

Take the following actions:
  • If the operator provides output from the DISPLAY NET,TOPO,LIST=TDUINFO and the DISPLAY NET,TOPO,LIST=TDUDIAG commands, use the information about display TDU information in z/OS Communications Server: SNA Diagnosis Vol 1, Techniques and Procedures to analyze the TDU activity. If possible, identify the topology resource that is in contention and the network nodes that are involved in the TDU war.
  • If you have access to IBMLink, search for known problems in this area. If no applicable matches are found, report the problem to IBM® by using the Electronic Technical Report (ETR) option on IBMLink.
  • If you do not have access to IBMLink, report the problem to the IBM software support center.
