IST511I
TRACE REQUEST FAILED — nodename INVALID

Explanation

VTAM® issues this message in response to a MODIFY TRACE command or TRACE start option. The trace that VTAM attempted for resource nodename failed because nodename does not exist or is not valid for the type of trace requested.

If the node name is CNMSTATE, this indicates that the communication manager (for example, NetView®) is not active, but must be active for the trace requested to be successful.

System action

VTAM rejects the command.

Operator response

Ensure that you entered nodename correctly. If problems persist, verify that nodename is valid for the type of trace requested.

For information on the MODIFY TRACE command or TRACE start option, see z/OS Communications Server: SNA Operation.

System programmer response

None.
