GNT139

record

Reason:

record is the data portion of a LOGON initialization parameter or descriptive data.

Action:

No action is required.

GNT140

LOGON LUNAME already defined

Reason:

The immediately preceding GNT139 message displays a duplicate specification of the LOGON LUNAME initialization parameter. The first specification is retained, and the duplicate is ignored.

Action:

Remove the unwanted definition from the initialization parameters.

GNT141

LOGON LUNAME is invalid

Reason:

The value specified for the LUNAME in the immediately preceding GNT139 message is not a syntactically valid LUNAME.

Action:

Correct the LUNAME specification in the initialization parameters and restart.

GNT142

LOGON PASSWORD is invalid

Reason:

The value specified for the password in the immediately preceding GNT139 message is not a syntactically valid password.

Note: For security reasons, the password field in the GNT139 has been replaced with XXXX. You will need to examine the initialization parameters’ source to determine the problem with the password.

Action:

Correct the password specification in the initialization parameters and restart.

GNT143

LOGON LUNAME assigned value of luname

Reason:

The indicated value of luname has been assigned as the appropriate LUNAME for communications with terminals desiring to logon. Note that this message does not indicate that VTAM will accept the request to use this LUNAME.

Action:

No action is required.

GNT144

preceding LOGON record is invalid

Reason:

The immediately preceding GNT139 message displays a LOGON initialization parameter record whose first word is not a recognized LOGON sub-verb.

Action:

Correct or remove the invalid record.

GNT145

No LOGON luname defined

Reason:

Although you have defined applications for terminal logon requests, you have not defined an LUNAME to be used for communication.

Action:

If terminal logons are to be accepted, supply an appropriate LUNAME specification and restart.

GNT146

GoalNet Terminated by Command

Reason:

An operator entered a GOALNET TERMINATE command and all nodes have been disconnected and the VTAM ACB closed.

Action:

GoalNet functions are unavailable until a GOALNET RESTART command is entered.

GNT147

GoalNet connection to VTAM lost. Reply RESTART, AUTO, or NONE

Reason:

During operation of GoalNet, its connection to VTAM was lost. This may be due to VTAM failure or a VARY INACT against GoalNet’s application ID. At GoalNet initialization, RESTART WTOR was specified.

Action:

The following actions can be taken:

RESTART

Issued after VTAM is restarted or the application ID has been reactivated, this option will cause GoalNet to reinitialize itself.

AUTO

Issued prior to VTAM being restarted, this reply will eliminate the WTOR and cause GoalNet to await the issuance of message IST020 by VTAM. At that time, an automatic GoalNet restart will be attempted. AUTO is not an appropriate reply if VTAM is not being restarted or if VTAM restarting is already complete.

NONE

This option will eliminate the WTOR and no further action will be taken by GoalNet. Following restoration of the VTAM environment, you will need to issue a GOALNET RESTART command to CA‑GSS.

GNT148

Reply to GNT147 is invalid. Try again

Reason:

An operator entered a reply in response to GNT147 but it was invalid. The GNT147 message is redisplayed.

Action:

Issue a reply to the redisplayed GNT147 message.
