APAR status
Closed as documentation error.
Error description
A new temporary event status "Failed By Mgr" was added with code changes documented by APAR IC55610. Prior to IC55610, if the TSM server detected a loss of network connection, or a client scheduler session was terminated due to IDLETIMEOUT, the TSM server would set the event status to FAILED. The TSM client could reconnect and finish the operation, but then fail to be able to update the scheduled event to SUCCESS, TSM server would report ANR2576W message on the second attempt to set the event status. TSM server will now set an event to "Failed By Mgr" if the status is set by TSM server due to communications failure or timeout on the TSM server. This new event status can be overwritten to a final event status of SUCCESS or FAILED as appropriate when the operation completes. TSM Administrator's Reference should document the new event status under QUERY EVENT, and explain why an event may be in this state, and what final event status it can change to. Affected Levels: 5.4.4+ and 5.5.1+ TSM servers on all platforms Initital impact: Low Additional Keywords: IC55610 ANR2576W query event IC50193 IC52799 IC53464
