Explanation
This message is the first in a group of messages
that VTAM® issues in response
to a MODIFY command. A complete description of the message group follows.
IST549I LL2 TEST FOR ID = name ENDED result
IST243I FRAMES SENT = sent, RCVD = received, RCVD WITHOUT ERRORS = noerrors
The
MODIFY LL2 command requests a link level 2 test to name be
initiated.
result can be one of the following:
- DUE TO A LINK INOP
- The test was terminated prematurely because of a failure in the
link to which name is attached.
- DUE TO A TEST INIT ERROR
- The test initialization procedure failed because the ERP limit
expired while the link station was waiting for a response to the initial
test command. In this case, sent, received,
and noerrors will be all zeroes. This might occur
over a link connecting two NCPs if both NCPs attempt to initiate link
level 2 tests simultaneously for that link.
- SUCCESSFULLY
- Valid responses were received for the requested number of TEST
commands.
- WITH ERRORS
- The test results contain errors. See the following explanation
for noerrors.
