command FAILED FOR nodename REQUEST runame SENSE code

Explanation

VTAM® is unable to complete command for nodename. The error occurred during the processing of request unit runame.

See Command and RU types in VTAM messages for a description of command and runame.

code is the sense code and indicates the reason for the failure. See the z/OS Communications Server: IP and SNA Codes for a description of code.

System action

VTAM rejects the command.

Operator response

If you can correct the reason for the failure, do so and reenter the command. If nodename is a resource in another domain, the error can be in either domain. Notify the operator of the other domain if action is required in that domain as well.

For example,
  • ACTIVATE FAILED FOR cdrmname REQUEST ACTCDRM SENSE 08120000:
    • The activation of an SSCP-SSCP session, started by an ACTCDRM request from the other domain, failed because of insufficient storage in this domain.
    • The operator can restart the activation in this domain by issuing a VARY ACT command for cdrmname.
    • If the activation continues to fail:
      • Use the MODIFY CSALIMIT command to increase VTAM’s common service area storage.
      • Deactivate other network resources to provide the necessary storage.
  • ACTIVATE FAILED FOR cdrmname REQUEST ACTCDRM SENSE 084E0000:
    • The activation of an SSCP-SSCP session failed because the NETID in the ACTCDRM request or response does not match the NETID coded in the CDRM definition.
  • ACTIVATE FAILED FOR cdrmname REQUEST ACTCDRM SENSE 08810000:
    • If this host is not a gateway host, and the operator issues the VARY ACT command for cdrmname for a gateway SSCP, the gateway NCP sends REQACTCDRM to the gateway SSCP. The gateway SSCP then attempts to activate the SSCP-SSCP session.
    • If this host is a gateway host and in a back-to-back configuration, the gateway NCP sends REQACTCDRM to the other gateway host to cause the SSCP-SSCP session to be established.

For a storage problem, enter the DISPLAY BFRUSE command. Issue the DISPLAY STORUSE command to display storage usage for storage pools. Save the system log and dump for problem determination.

System programmer response

Verify that the operator entered the buffer pool or CSA start options as specified in the start procedures.

Increase storage as required. For insufficient storage errors, you might want to redefine your buffer pool or CSA limits. If the start option cannot be modified using the MODIFY VTAMOPTS command, you must modify the VTAM start options file (ATCSTRxx) and restart VTAM to use the start option.
