CONFIG configname GWPATH statement IGNORED — INVALID STMT

Explanation

VTAM® ignores the GWPATH definition statement statement in the CDRM major node definition configname.

VTAM issues this message when a GWPATH definition statement follows a CDRM statement, and the CDRM statement defines a resource in this network. This condition can occur in one of the following ways:
  • No NETWORK definition statement preceded the CDRM statement; this implies that the CDRM statement is defined for a resource in the host’s network.
  • The NETID operand on the preceding NETWORK definition statement indicated that the NETWORK statement was for this host’s network.
  • The GWPATH statement cannot be coded in a CDRM major node if the host is not gateway capable, that is, is not started with GWSSCP=YES.
  • The class of service (CoS) name as known in the adjacent network is invalid. The keyword value might be too large, the value might contain invalid characters, or the value might not start with an alphabetic character (A–Z). This implies that an invalid COS name might be used for the SSCP-SSCP session.

System action

System programmer response

Examine the CDRM major node to determine whether one of the following conditions apply:
  • A GWPATH statement could be coded (that is, the preceding CDRM statement is intended to define a CDRM in another network).
  • A GWPATH statement should not have been coded (that is, the preceding CDRM statement is intended to define a CDRM in this network).
  • If the host needs to be gateway capable, specify GWSSCP=YES when VTAM is started.
  • If the host does not need to be gateway capable, remove the GWPATH statement from the CDRM definition.
