Reason:
The TCP/IP socket interface configuration is being checked, including:
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Errors in the socket interface will result in major loss of function.
Review the region setup information in the product Installation Guide.
Many region socket-related parameters are set in the $NM SOCKETS Customizer parameter group (/PARMS).
Reason:
The current status of the TCP/IP interface between this region and the host system is P1.
It must be ACTIVE before NetMaster NM for TCP/IP can function correctly.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
If the status is STARTING, rerun the command in a few moments, after the interface has started.
If the status is INACTIVE or STOPPING, go to the $NM SOCKETS Customizer parameter group (/PARMS).
Look in the initialization log for this group for any error messages.
Action the SOCKETS group, and see if any errors recur.
Reason:
This message contains general information about the configuration and setup of this region.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
No port number has been specified for this region.
A region uses its port number to listen for connection requests. If a port number is not specified, this region cannot accept connections from other regions, and INMC over TCP/IP cannot be used.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
If this region needs to participate in IP connection activity, specify a port number, using the $NM SOCKETS Customizer parameter group (/PARMS).
Action this group, then check its initialization log for messages.
If a port number has been specified, it may already be in use by another task. Check the activity log for error messages relating to the port number (for example, N3AE01 37 - EADDRINUSE - ADDRESS ALREADY IN USE).
Use connection lists (/IPCON) to see who is currently using the port.
Reason:
A SHOW TCPIP command was issued, which either timed out or returned errors. This may not indicate problems with the socket interface, but should be investigated as a precaution.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Issue the SHOW TCPIP command from OCS, and investigate any error responses (place cursor on a message, then press F1).
Look for errors in the Customizer initialization log for the $NM SOCKETS Customizer parameter group (/PARMS).
Ensure the Communications Server stack address space is active.
Look for TCP/IP or socket related errors in the activity log, including at the time of region startup.
Reason:
Unexpected response was received on GET of SNMP System Description.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Errors in the SNMP interface will result in loss of data to certain functions.

System Action:
None.
User Action:
Check that the dataset name shown on the Activity Log is the correct one. If is is not, correct it. If it is, check the explanation of any additional messages. One possible cause of this message is a migrated dataset. For performance reasons, Self Test does not recall migrated datasets.
Reason:
The data set P1 does not have the attributes required by TCP/IP Services. The actual data set name, and the attribute in error, and its required and actual values, are written to the Activity Log.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Ensure that the IPFILES parameter group in Customizer specifies the correct data set names. Check the attributes and reallocate the files if necessary.
Reason:
This message describes a data set attribute in error. Both the required and actual values are displayed.

System Action:
None.
User Action:
Change either the TCPaccess jobname or subsystem ID in the TCP/IP Administration panels so that both refer to the same TCPaccess system.
Reason:
The configuration for TCP/IP stack IP connection events is being checked, including:
System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
NetMaster NM for TCP/IP requires a connection to a SOLVE Subsystem Interface (SSI) started task to function correctly.
The SSID parameter is specified in the $NM SSI Customizer parameter group ( /PARMS ).
The SSID is not correctly defined, or the SSI cannot be connected for one of the following reasons ( P1 ):
System Action:
None.
Selftest UNIX System Services SSI Interface tests are omitted because these will always fail with no connected SSI.
User Action:
no SSID specified
The SSID is a one- to four-character value that matches the SSID parameter of the SOLVESSI started task. To connect to the started task, you must specify the same SSID in this region.
To specify the SSID:
1. Add the following JCL initialization statement to the RUNSYSIN member for this region:
PPREF='SSID=xxxx' (xxxx = the SSID value)
2. Update the SSI parameter group in Customizer to specify the SSID value and action the group.
SSID ssid matches AOM SSID
Ensure that the SOLVE SSI SSID and the AOM SSID are different. The two SSIDs are specified in the following Customizer parameter groups:
Update the appropriate parameter group to specify the correct value and action the group.
SSID ssid is not connected
Ensure that the SOLVESSI started task is active. The SSID specified in this region is shown (ssid).
Check that the value matches the SSID= parameter for the SOLVESSI started task. To change the SSID value in this region, update the SSI parameter group in Customizer and action the group.
Reason:
Many functions require a connection to a SOLVE Subsystem Interface (SSI) started task in order to receive external events. Furthermore, the SSI must be configured with the EndPoint Services (EPS) Simple Event Service.
This error usually occurs when you have specified the wrong SSID value. This region is connected to a SOLVE SSI. However, neither that SSI started task nor any interconnected SSI task is configured with the EPS Simple Event Service.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Ensure that one of the SSI started tasks in the LPAR provides the Simple Event Service. To provide the service, an SSI started task must include the following parameter:
XEVNT=YES
The following parameters can also be included, but must not be set to any other value than as shown:
XMS=YES XAPI=YES
Note: If you need to change the SSI started task parameters, you must restart that started task. You can have multiple SSI started tasks but only one of these can provide this service.
To determine the facilities provided by the SSI that this region is connected to, issue the following command in OCS or Command Entry:
SSI STATUS
To determine the facilities provided by any SSI started task, you must use the SYSCMD facility to send a message to that started task, for example:
F taskname,SSI STATUS (taskname is the SSI started task name)
If the SSI provides the Simple Event Service, the output from the SSI STATUS command includes the following message:
NY8001 SIMPLE EVENT SERVICE ACTIVE, NAME=$SYS.SIMPLE.EVENT.sysn (sysn is the system name for the z/OS LPAR)
If you have connected the region to the wrong SSI started task, you need to change the SSID that is specified in the region.
To change the SSID for the region do one (or both) of the following:
To change the SSID value in this region you must first stop the SSI.
To stop the SSI, issue the following command:
SYSPARM SSID=NO
You can then specify the new value using the following command:
SYSPARM SSID=xxxx (xxxx = the SSID value)
Reason:
This message lists which stack workload events, if any, are written to the Activity Log and saved in the IP Event History dataset.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
IP Events are written to the Activity Log by specifying YES against the following fields on the IPEVENT Customizer parameter group:
- Log FTP Events?
- Log Telnet Events?
- Log Connection Events?
It is not a requirement by any other part of the NetMaster product to have these events written to the activity log and if you anticipate large volumes of events, you may prefer not to do so.
IP Events are stored in the IP Event History dataset IPLOG by specifying YES against the following fields on the IPEVENT Customizer parameter group:
- Save FTP Events?
- Save Telnet Events?
- Save Connection Events?
If you want to list, search or examine the details of individual IP events using the /IPHIST option, you must save the corresponding events. Events are only retained for a limited time period. You control this with the IPFILES Customizer parameter group.
With some mainframe IP stacks, event records can also be written to your SMF datasets. This is independent of any NetMaster processing of these events.
Reason:
The event receiver for the P2 type and class P1 of events using a receiver ID of P3 has a status of P4 . Status is one of the following:
ACTIVE - The receiver is active and able to receive events.
RETRYING - Define failed and is being retried. The activity Log contains messages (IPCM2509, IPCM2510) showing the reason for the define failing when it was last attempted.
INITIALIZING - The receiver process is being initialized. Retry in a short while to see the current status.
The relationship between the event receiver types, system receiver IDs, and SMF event types is as follows:
SMF Event Type Receiver ID( P3 ) Receiver Type( P2 )
------------------------------- -------------- --- -------------------
FTP Server and FTP Client $IPEVENT FTP
Telnet Server and Telnet Client $IPEVENT TELNET
Connection Initialization and $IPEVENT IPCONN
Connection Termination
------------------------------- ----------------- -------------------
System event receivers are controlled by using the TCP/IP Services Logging and Data Collection Administration panel.

System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
This is an informational message specifying link definitions configuration status.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
When APPC links are defined, a specific MODE called P1 which has certain attributes required for multi-system support is used. This message indicates either that this MODE is not defined or that it has incorrect attributes.
For incorrect attributes, the exact details, including the required and actual attribute values, are written to the SOLVE Log.
SOLVE always defines the mode with the correct attributes. Incorrect attributes may be a result of a subsequent REPLINK command.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Check the values specified on the Advanced Parameters Administration panel. Use the REPLINK command to correct the attributes.
Reason:
When APPC links are defined, a specific OPSET called P1 is used. The OPSET P2 must have a specific MODE specified as a valid mode for the OPSET and requires specific values for other OPSET attributes.
This message indicates that the OPSET is either undefined, or has invalid attributes. Invalid attribute details, including the required and actual attribute values, are written to the Activity Log.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Check the values on the Advanced Parameters Administration panel. Use the REPOPSET command to correct the parameters.
Reason:
When APPC links are defined, a specific DEFLINK is used which must include the LU mask P1 and specific attribute values. This message indicates either that a DEFLINK for this mask is not defined or is defined but with incorrect attributes.
Details about incorrect attributes, including the required and actual attribute values, are written to the Activity Log.
The correct attribute values are always used. Incorrect values may be the result of a subsequent REPLINK command.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Check the values on the Advanced Parameters Administration Panel. Use the REPLINK command to correct the attributes.
Reason:
You have specified a non-generic 'Automatically Defined LU Mask' in the Administration (Advanced Parameters) panel. APPC links will only be dynamically defined to this single, specific LU name.
System Action:

A z/OS UNIX environment has been opened. A sample SHELL command has been processed. 'STDERR' output has been received in response to the UNIX command. This output has been written to the activity log.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Examine the STDERR output and any subsequent error messages. STDERR output is sometimes the result of shell setup problems and may not always affect NetMaster processing.
For NetMaster to be able to access the z/OS UNIX environment, the RACF/ACF2 OMVS segment for the user ID associated with the NetMaster SSI started task must have been correctly set up. The NetMaster SSI performs all z/OS UNIX functions on behalf of this NetMaster region. If this OMVS segment is not correct, error conditions can occur.
If you receive this message, and either the Self Test UNIX Test fails, or some NetMaster TCP/IP functions do not appear to work correctly, investigate the specific UNIX shell error messages that appear on your NetMaster Activity log. These should be documented in the appropriate z/OS UNIX manuals.

Reason:
Indicates whether or not the Reporting Listener task ($IPLO81Z) or the Trend Event Listener task ($IPTD21W) is active.
The Reporting Listener task is required for the logging of events to the Activity Log and to the IPLOG file.
The Trend Event Listener task is required for the accumulation of summary data into the IPFILE and the production of the IPTREND file. This will only be active if the IPFILES Customizer Parameter Group (/PARMS) has the field 'Produce IPTREND file?' set to YES.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
If you require Event History logging and $IPLO81Z is not running check the IPFILES Customizer Parameter Group (/PARMS). There needs to be an allocated dataset, keep days and delete time.
If you require expired event history to be written to the IPTREND data set and $IPTD21W is not running also check the IPFILES Customizer Parameter Group (/PARMS) and the Activity Log. Check that the IPFILES Customizer Parameter Group (/PARMS) has the field 'Produce IPTREND file?' set to YES.

The UNIX System Services SSI Interface is being checked, including:
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Errors in the USS SSI Interface can result in loss of data to some functions.
Review the region setup information in the product Installation Guide, particularly relating to the OMVS segment required by the user ID of this region's MVS started task.
Reason:
In order to communicate with IBM's UNIX System Services (USS), the TCP/IP Services NETSTAT and ONETSTAT functions require services from a SOLVE Subsystem Interface (SSI) started task that is configured with the EndPoint Services (EPS) UNIX SHELL Service.
The SSI configured with the USS interface may be either:
This error usually occurs when you have specified the wrong SSID value. This region is connected to a SOLVE SSI. However, neither that SSI started task nor any interconnected SSI task is configured with the EPS UNIX SHELL Service.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Ensure that one of the SSI started tasks in the LPAR provides the UNIX SHELL Service. To provide the service, an SSI started task must include the following parameter:
UNIX=YES
The following parameters can also be included, but must not be set to any other value than as shown:
XMS=YES XAPI=YES
Note: If you need to change the SSI started task parameters, you must restart that started task. You can have multiple SSI started tasks but only one of these can provide this service.
To determine the facilities provided by the SSI that this region is connected to, issue the following command in OCS or Command Entry:
SSI STATUS
To determine the facilities provided by any SSI started task, you must use the SYSCMD facility to send a message to that started task, for example:
F taskname,SSI STATUS (taskname is the SSI started task name)
If the SSI provides the UNIX SHELL Service, the output from the SSI STATUS command includes the following message:
NSC001 UNIX SHELL INTERFACE ACTIVE, NAME=$SYS.UNIX.SHELL.sysn
(sysn is the system name for the z/OS LPAR)
If you have connected this region to the wrong SSI started task, you need to change the SSID that is specified in this region.
To change the SSID, do one (or both) of the following:
To change the SSID value in this region, you must first stop the SSI.
To stop the SSI, issue the following command:
SYSPARM SSID=NO
You can then specify the new value using the following command:
SYSPARM SSID=xxxx (xxxx = the SSID value)
Reason:
USS/SSI support is required for issuing NETSTAT when using IBM stacks. The local system is using TCPAccess and does not require UNIX System Services for NETSTAT facilities.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
A UNIX environment has been opened, and sample SHELL commands have been successfully processed. The interface between this region and the SOLVE SSI region which communicates with UNIX System Services is fully functional.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
P1 displays the response from the id shell command. It displays the user ID and group name associated with the SOLVE SSI address space. This is the user ID under which all UNIX commands are executed.
The format is:
uid=runum(user) gid=rgnum(groupname)
For an explanation of this response, see the UNIX System Services Command Reference manual.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
P1 is the SOLVE SSI user's default working directory name. This is the initial directory path name set by the HOME=... operand specified in the OMVS segment of the security profile.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
A z/OS UNIX environment has been opened. A sample SHELL command has been processed. STDERR output has been received in response to the command, and the STDERR text indicates a problem with the home directory.
The home directory is defined in the OMVS segment for the user ID associated with the SOLVE SSI started task. See the message IPDI5274 for details of the user ID.
Common causes of home directory problems include:
System Action:
None.
In general, home directory related problems do not affect normal operation because the z/OS UNIX features used by the region do not involve the home directory. However, they may indicate other problems with your user ID security or z/OS UNIX setup.
User Action:
Proceed as normal. If any operational errors are encountered, investigate and rectify the condition, and retry the operation.
Accessing z/OS UNIX
The region needs to access z/OS UNIX to issue the NETSTAT and ONETSTAT commands, and to perform other socket-related processing provided by z/OS UNIX.
For the region to be able to access the z/OS UNIX environment, the CA ACF2, CA Top Secret, or RACF OMVS segment for the user ID associated with the SOLVE SSI started task must have been correctly set up. The SOLVE SSI performs all z/OS UNIX functions on behalf of this region.
If this OMVS segment is not correct, error conditions can occur.
Setting Up the SOLVE SSI user ID OMVS segment
For information about this task, see the Installation Guide for your product. Your CA ACF2, CA Top Secret, or RACF security administrator performs this task.
Investigating a z/OS UNIX home directory error
Get the exact STDERR message text from the activity log, for example, 'cannot change to HOME directory'.
'cannot change to HOME directory' is a common error. It generally indicates that the home directory defined for the SOLVE SSI user ID's OMVS segment does not exist or cannot be accessed.
Contact your security administrator to review the home directory path name defined for the SOLVE SSI user ID.
Contact your z/OS UNIX administrator or systems programmer to ensure that the HFS file system supporting this home directory path name is defined and correctly mounted, and that the user ID has read, write, and execute permission to the home directory.
The following OCS commands may be helpful:
USS WHOAMI displays the UID name of the SOLVE SSI user ID.
USS ID displays the UNIX user and group IDs, and names of the SOLVE SSI user ID.
USS PWD displays the working directory path name of the SOLVE SSI user ID.
Reason:
An attempt to communicate with the UNIX System Services shell has failed. This may be preceded by messages listing the exact error cause.

Reason:
A UNIX operation attempted by the TCP/IP Services Self Test procedure has failed. P1 is the failing operation, P2 is the return code and feedback, and P3 is the reason text.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
If you received feedback code 5 (UNIX assembler call failed) or 9 (Subtask initialization failed), investigate the additional details provided by message IPDI5279.
Look at the SOLVE SSILOG and see if it contains any messages related to error conditions.
Confirm that you have set up the USS SSI interface correctly, including:
- Upgrading the SOLVE SSI software to the correct level
- Adding parameter UNIX=YES to the SOLVE SSI region
- Adding a RACF/ACF2/Top Secret OMVS segment, defined with a valid user ID, to the user ID associated with the SSI started task
- Verifying that, if present in the user's home directory, the .profile file is valid.
If you are unable to determine the nature of the error by using this information, contact your Techical Support Representative.
Reason:
A UNIX assembler call or subtask initialization call has failed.
P1 indicates the specific macro call which failed. The value shown corresponds to the call offset listed in the 'System Control Offsets to Callable Services' chapter in the OS/390 UNIX System Services Assembler Callable Services manual.
P2 and P3 are the return code and reason code from the failing macro call. These are listed in the OS/390 UNIX System Services Messages and Codes manual.

User Action:
None.
Reason:
The event receiver for Socket Management has a status of P1. Status is one of the following:
* ACTIVE - The receiver is active and able to receive events.
* INACTIVE - The receiver is inactive. This is due to the system not being licensed for SocketMgmt or due to a define failure (check the activity log for SKEV25* messages for details).
* PENDING - The receiver process is pending. Retry in a short while to see the current status.
System Action:
None
User Action:
Contact your System Administrator.
Reason:
This message contains Socket Management servers information.
The information shown is a list of active Socket Management servers displaying CICS region name; command server address and port; whether the CICS is defined in the resource monitor; and whether CICS security is on.
Each of these active Socket Management servers is actively being monitored by the Socket Management event receiver.

SELFTEST discovered that CA Common Services SMF Query facility (CAISMFO) has not been found.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Check whether the required version of CA Common Services was installed. Previous message IPDI52B0 shows the detected level.
Reason:
SELFTEST discovered that NetMaster SMF exits were started before the required environment was in place.
It may indicate that the exits code was activated before SSI started or SSI may have failed to create the required environment.
Note:
Although the situation may have been rectified, the error indicator stays on until the system is IPL-ed, to indicate the intermittent nature of detected errors.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Check whether NetMaster exits were started manually or through SSI. Check if SSI was started before CA Common Services (CAS9) and if it was, restart SSI.
Reason:
SELFTEST discovered that NetMaster SMF exit P1 detected error P2 It indicates that NetMaster SMF exits code has been started (most probably manually) before SSI start.
P1 is exit name
P2 is an error code:
SMFS - unfinished SAB/SMFS detected
SMCT - missing/unfinished SMCT detected
CCDE - Common Code is not loaded
Note: Although the situation may have been rectified, the error indicator stays on until the system is IPL-ed, to indicate the intermittent nature of detected errors.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Check whether NetMaster exits were started manually or through SSI. Check if SSI was started before CA Common Services (CAS9) and if it was, restart SSI.
Reason:
SELFTEST discovered that the P1 SMF exit detected an invalid SMF record. The record received for processing was not of Type 119. This is a result of logic check.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Contact Technical Support.
Reason:
The P1 SMF exit detected Type 118 SMF records that contain IPv6 local or remote addresses. This indicates that IPv6 is active on an IBM TCP/IP stack and Type 118 SMF records are being produced. Type 118 SMF records are not compatible with IPv6, and should not be used with IPv6 or dual mode IBM TCP/IP stacks.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Contact your Systems Programmer, and investigate whether you need to reconfigure the collection of SMF records to produce Type 119 SMF records instead.
Reason:
The SMF exit P1 detected type 119 SMF records that contain IPv6 local or remote host addresses. This indicates that IPv6 is active on an IBM TCP/IP stack. The current CA NetMaster release does not support IPv6 host addresses, and it ignores SMF records that contain them.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
SELFTEST discovered that multiple copies of SMF exits are concurrently active in the system.
P1 is the SMF exit load module name.
P2 is the CA Common Services version of the first active copy.
P3 is the CA Common Services version of the second active copy. The CA Common Services SMF version is of the format Y7ms, where ms is the product Delivery Level. Current versions are as follows: Y750 - Release 7.0 Y760 - r11 Y770 - r12
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Check if different versions of SSI are running concurrently. Identify which of them corresponds to each provided version. Issue the command
f ssiname,smf dereg for the SSI that corresponds to the older version.
Rerun SELFTEST to verify the results of the action. If the older version reported is Y750 and the SSI is not running, you can start it by issuing the deregistration command and stopping it.
If you experience problems running more than one SSI concurrently, you should consider using the SMFDEREG utility. It must be run from an authorized load library, the product library being the obvious choice.
The JCL example to run SMFDEREG is as follows:
// JOB //SMFDRG EXEC PGM=SMFDEREG,PARM='Y750' //STEPLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=HLQ.NMRXX.LOAD //
The program attempts to deregister Y750 version SMF exits. Information about the execution is provided in the form of console messages (WTO).
If you cannot determine which version to deregister, you can run SMFDEREG without specifying parameters. It will try to deregister all known versions of the SMF exits. You must start the latest version of the SSI with SMP support and issue f ssiname,smf reg after it starts.
Reason:
SELFTEST discovered that none of multiple copies of SMF exits known to CA Common Services are active in the system.
P1 is the SMF exit functional name.
P2 is the CA Common Services version of the first known copy.
P3 is the CA Common Services version of the second known copy.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Check if any version of SSI is running. If it corresponds to the latest version of the exit, issue f ssiname,smf reg . If it fails, check the log and investigate. Rerun SELFTEST.
Reason:
SELFTEST of SMF support was terminated.
P1 is the reason:
SAB - System Anchor Block was not created. It indicates that NetMaster SSI was not run or it failed to create SAB. If NetMaster SSI was run, check SSI log for messages related to SAB creation.
SMFS - SMF Slot in SAB was not created or invalid. It indicates that NetMaster SSI was not run or it did not create/finalise SMFS. It may indicate the fact that none of NetMaster SSIs was started with SMF=YES specification. If NetMaster SSI was run with SMF=YES specified, check SSI log for messages related to SMF activation.
SMCT - SMF Control Table was not created or invalid. It indicates that NetMaster SSI was not run or it did not create/finalise SMCT. It may indicate the fact that none of NetMaster SSIs was started with SMF=YES specification. It may also indicate that SMF registration failed. If NetMaster SSI was run with SMF=YES specified, check SSI log for messages related to SMF activation.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Make sure that one of NetMaster SSIs is dedicated as SMF controlling and is started with SMF=YES specified.
Reason:
The SSI and Packet Analyzer configuration is being checked, including:
System Action:
None.
User Action:
If SOLVE SSI is not active on this system, start it.
Errors in the SSI and Packet Analyzer will result in major loss of function.
The SOLVE SSI runs as a separate started task to this region and has its own specific setup requirements.
Review the SSI setup information in the product Installation Guide.
Reason:
The SOLVE Subsystem Interface is defined with P1 as the SSID value.
The SSID is specified in the $NM SSI Customizer parameter group (/PARMS).
System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
The connectivity being tested requires a connection to an SSI started task that includes support for the Packet Analyzer.
Packet Analyzer support is not configured in the connected SSI task (SSID P1), nor any interconnected SSI task. The Packet Analyzer may have been disabled by SSI parameter PKTANALYZER=NO or PALEVEL=NONE. Also, you may have connected this region to the wrong SSID.
Although Packet Analyzer is not necessary to operate CA NetMaster, it provides data needed by the following:
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Ensure that one of the SSI started tasks in the LPAR provides support for the Packet Analyzer. To provide the service, an SSI started task must include the parameter PKTANALZER=YES. Parameter PALEVEL must also be set to FULL.
Note: If you need to change the SSI started task parameters, you must restart that started task. You can have multiple SSI started tasks in an LPAR, but only one of these may be configured with Packet Analyzer support.
To determine the facilities provided by the SSI that this region is connected to, issue the following command in OCS or Command Entry:
SSI STATUS
To determine the facilities provided by any SSI started task, you must use the SYSCMD facility to send a message to that started task, for example:
F taskname,SSI STATUS
taskname is the name of the SSI started task.
If the SSI provides Packet Analyzer support, the output from the SSI STATUS command includes the following message:
NFST01 PACKET ANALYZER FEATURE IS ACTIVE
If you connected the region to the wrong SSI started task, you must change the SSID that is specified in the region. To do this, you must update the SSI parameter group in Customizer and action the group as follows:
Reason:
The Packet Analyzer is active and the indicated number of TCP/IP stacks have packet analysis enabled.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Additional details regarding the status of the Packet Analyzer and of specific stacks for which packet analysis is either requested or enabled are available using the following commands and displays.
Use the /IPPAREQ shortcut to display the TCP/IP : Packet Analysis Request List. This list shows all packet analysis requests for this LPAR.
Use the SSI's SHOW STACKS command to display the stacks that the Packet Analyzer is aware of, and which have packet analysis enabled.
Use the SSI's STATUS command to display the status of the Packet Analyzer.
SSI commands can be entered from a NetMaster region using the SSISEND command. For example:
SSISEND SHOW STACKS SSISEND STATUS
Reason:
The connectivity being tested requires a connection to an SSI started task that includes support for the CA Common Services query support.
This error usually occurs when you have specified the wrong SSID value. This region is connected to an SSI region (using SSID P1). However, neither that SSI started task, nor any interconnected SSI task, is configured with the CA Common Services query support.
Although query support is not necessary for proper operation of this region, it is a prerequisite for SMF exit registration.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Ensure that one of the SSI started tasks in the LPAR provides support for CA Common Services query.
To provide the service, an SSI started task must include the following parameter: TNGFWQ=YES (the default).
Note: If you need to change the SSI started task parameters, you must restart that started task. You can have multiple SSI started tasks in an LPAR, but only one of these can be configured with Packet Analyzer support.
To determine the facilities provided by the SSI that this region is connected to, issue the following command in OCS or Command Entry: SSI STATUS.
Reason:
The Packet Analyzer is currently running with statistics collection disabled. The SSI region may have started with PALEVEL=NOSTATS, or the level may have been dynamically changed to a value of NOSTATS.
When the Packet Analyzer is not collecting statistics, many of the performance data and data sampling facilities are unavailable.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Check why the SSI is not running with the parameter PALEVEL=FULL.
When including Packet Analyzer functions in an SSI, it is recommended to always set the PALEVEL parameter to FULL. If you run with a level other than FULL, many IP monitoring functions will not be available.
Only use a PALEVEL other than FULL if instructed by Technical Support.
Reason:
The Packet Analyzer is currently running with packet intercept disabled. The SSI region may have started with PALEVEL=NOPACKETS, or this level may have been modified dynamically.
When the Packet Analyzer has packet intercept disabled, many tracing and traffic facilities are unavailable.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Check why the SSI is not running with the parameter PALEVEL=FULL.
When including Packet Analyzer functions in an SSI, it is recommended to always set the PALEVEL parameter to FULL. If you run with a level other than FULL, various IP monitoring functions will not be available.
Only use a PALEVEL other than FULL if instructed by Technical Support.
Reason:
The Packet Analyzer is not using the current software level for this release. SmartTrace facilities are not available.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Your region should be connected to an SSI region of the same or later release. The SSI facilities are backward-compatible, so that an older release of the region can successfully connect to a later release of SSI; however, connecting a region to a back-level SSI results in loss of functionality.
Reason:
This message displays the usage of a Packet Analyzer database. The database is a dataspace, not a physical file.
P1 is the database type.
P2 is the maximum database size in MB.
P3 is the current percentage used.
P4 is the highest percentage used since the SSI region was last started.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
If the database utilization is approaching 100%, consider increasing the database size on the next restart of the SOLVE SSI region. The database size is set by SSI startup parameters:
Dynamic database : PDYNDBSIZE
Synch Database : PSYNDBSIZE
Trace Database : PTRCDBSIZE
Reason:
The Packet Analyzer is not running in the mode that was requested,for example, zIIP mode execution may have been requested, but cannot be provided.
System Action:
None.

Reason:
The SSI region has started with the PAEESTACK parameter set to the name of the z/OS stack that does Enterprise Extender (EE) processing on this LPAR.
Specifying the PAEESTACK parameter enables all of the CA NetMaster EE management functions, which you can access using shortcut /EE .
If you do not have EE implemented on this LPAR, leave the PAEESTACK parameter to default to NONE.
Generally, PAEESTACK is generated by the Install Utility that creates the SSI JCL, when you enter an EE Packet Processing Stack Name.
System Action:
The packet analyzer recognizes EE packets, and performs specialist traffic analysis, connection analysis, and tracing for EE.
User Action:
All of the CA NetMaster Enterprise Extender functions are now available from the Enterprise Extender Management Menu, shortcut /EE . These include the following:
Reason:
The SSI region was not started with the PAEESTACK parameter; however, an EE XCA Major Node is active on this LPAR.
Specifying the PAEESTACK parameter enables all of the CA NetMaster advanced Enterprise Extender management functions.
System Action:
The packet analyzer contines to count EE packets as part of normal UDP traffic, but does not recognize them as EE.
Specialist EE traffic analysis, connection analysis, and packet tracing are not available on this CA NetMaster region.
User Action:
Perform the following:
1. Contact your Systems Programmer or CA NetMaster Administrator and ensure that the SSI region is updated with the PAEESTACK parameter set to the name of the z/OS stack that does Enterprise Extender (EE) processing on this LPAR.

User Action:
Do not start an IP Growth Tracker shutdown listener if one is already running.
Reason:
The IP Growth Tracker statistics collector could not access the Packet Analyzer records indicated by p1, such as:
STK - Stack records
IPR - IP protocol records
System Action:
The IP Growth Tracker continues processing, but statistics is not calculated for the indicated records.
User Action:
Investigate whether there are any problems with the Packet Analyzer or SOLVE SSI that is causing record access to fail.
Reason:
The IP Growth Tracker web page was requested with criteria that resulted in no records being returned.
System Action:
The IP Growth Tracker web page displays this message.
User Action:
If a day-based timeframe was requested then no day records were found in the database matching the specified range. This may be caused by the IP Growth Tracker never having collected statistics, or the day statistics are too recent for the specified timeframe. Check again in 24 hours.
If a month-based timeframe was requested then no month records were found in the database. This is because the IP Growth Tracker has never rolled up day records into month records. Check again in a month's time.
If a year-based timeframe was requested then no year records were found in the database. This is because the IP Growth Tracker has never rolled up month records into year records. Check again next year.
Reason:
The SSI is currently running with PALEVEL set to NOPACKETS or NOSTATS. Packet statistics are only available when PALEVEL is FULL.
System Action:
No packet statistics are displayed.
User Action:
Check why the SSI is not running with the parameter PALEVEL=FULL.
When including Packet Analyzer functions in an SSI, we recommend that you always set the PALEVEL parameter to FULL. If you run with a level other than FULL, various IP monitoring functions are not available.
Only use a PALEVEL other than FULL if instructed by Technical Support.
Reason:
The charts displayed on the IP Growth Tracker web page are Java applets and therefore require a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) in order to display their data. This message is displayed after 15 seconds if no JRE has been detected.
System Action:
The IP Growth Tracker charts are not displayed.
User Action:
If a Java Runtime Environment is already installed for your browser then click Refresh to reload the web page. A delay while loading may have prevented the JRE from initializing within 15 seconds.
If you are using a 32-bit browser then an auto-download and install of the JRE may have been initiated. Reload the page once the installation has completed.
If you are using a 64-bit browser then you will need to install the JRE manually. Go to http://java.sun.com and navigate to downloads where you can choose an appropriate JRE to install.

The TCP/IP Event Logger may terminate if it cannot continue processing.
User Action:
Determine why the NDB error occurred. Contact your System Administrator for further assistance.
Reason:
The Event Logger received a VSAM I/O error when trying to add a record to the IPLOG database. This is a serious error, and the Event Logger has terminated. The most likely reason for this error is that the IPLOG database has become full.
System Action:
The Event Logger cannot continue processing and has terminated. The IPLOG database is most likely in a status of BAD-LOCKED.
User Action:
Check the Activity Log for further messages that indicate why the I/O error occurred. To access the log, type $LOG from any panel.
If the NDB is full and is marked BAD-LOCKED , the only solution is to delete and redefine the NDB. However, before doing this, if you wish to extract the data currently in the NDB, perform the following steps:
1. Issue the NDB START IPLOG UNLOCK INPUT command to open the database as input only. If you issue this command without the INPUT option, the SOLVE region will attempt to reapply the last transaction, causing the NDB to remain BAD-LOCKED .
2. Type the name of your extract dataset into the field provided on the History Data Menu ( /IPHIST ), and select option EX to start the extract process.
3. Go to the Activity Log ( $LOG ) for progress messages on the extract process.
4. When the extract process has finished, deallocate the IPLOG database by issuing the following commands:
- NDB STOP IPLOG to stop the database
- UDBCTL CLOSE=IPLOG to close the file
- DEALLOC DD=IPLOG to deallocate the file
5. After the IPLOG database has been deallocated, submit your batch job to delete and redefine the dataset (optionally giving it more space). For information about the attributes of the distributed database, see the SOLVE Installation and Setup Instructions .
6. Upon successful completion of the batch job, go to the Customizer : Parameter Groups menu ( /PARMS ) and check that all parameters in IPFILES parameter group are correct. You might want to decrease the number of days worth of records to be stored within the database.
7. Press F3 (File) to action the parameters. This reinitializes the Event Logging environment, and the Event Logger should restart with no problems.
Reason:
The Event Logger tried to add a record to the IPLOG database and discovered that the database was locked. This is a serious error, and the Event Logger has terminated. The most likely reason for this error is that the IPLOG database has become full.
System Action:
The Event Logger cannot continue processing and has terminated. The IPLOG database is in a status of LOCKED or BAD-LOCKED.
User Action:
Check the Activity Log for further messages that indicate why the I/O error occurred. To access the log, enter $LOG from any panel.
It is uncommon for the NDB to have the LOCKED status. However, if this occurs, issue an NDB START IPLOG UNLOCK command and then action the Customizer : Parameter Groups ( /PARMS ) IPFILES parameter group by pressing F6. If the NDB is full and has the BAD-LOCKED status, the only solution is to delete and redefine the NDB. However, before doing this, if you wish to extract the data currently in the NDB, perform the following steps:
1. Issue the NDB START IPLOG UNLOCK INPUT command to open the database as input-only. If you issue this command without the INPUT option, the SOLVE region will attempt to reapply the last transaction, causing the NDB to remain BAD-LOCKED .
2. Type the name of your extract dataset into the field provided on the History Data Menu ( /IPHIST ), and select option EX to start the extract process.
3. Go to the Activity Log ( $LOG ) for progress messages on the extract process.

User Action:
Check the initialization log to determine the cause of the failure, if any.
Reason:
An NDB error prevented records from being written to IPLOG, and caused the logger to only record events through SMF, if SMF logging is enabled.
System Action:
Logging continues if SMF logging is enabled; otherwise, all records are discarded.
User Action:
Check the initialization log to determine the cause of the failure.
To enable SMF logging, set the Write samples to SMF? field to YES in the IPFILES Customizer parameter group and specify a non-zero value in the SMF Record Identifier field of the SMF Customizer parameter group.
Reason:

Reason:
The line print daemon command handling procedure does not recognize the action P1 and is unable to process it.
System Action:
The request is rejected and the procedure terminates.
User Action:
Contact your local support representative.
Reason:
A portion of the file PRINT command to the Line Printer Daemon failed during processing. P1 describes the particular section during which the failure occurred.
System Action:
The print request processing is terminated.
User Action:
Retry the operation and, if unsuccessful, report the problem to your network systems administrator.
Reason:
The print request command was successfully sent to the line print daemon.
System Action:

User Action:
None.
Reason:
A line printer command process received an error indication while freeing TCP/IP resources. P1 and P2 are the return values from SOCKET DEALLOCATE.
System Action:
Processing continues.
User Action:
Report the error to your product support representative.
Reason:
A line print command process has been started using TRACE=YES. The message text is one of the three indicated formats. The first two formats are heading lines that display the direction relative to the terminal of the data flow and P1 its length. The third format is a dump of the datastream that is repeated until the entire datastream is displayed. The fields are:
P1 - The offset into the datastream
P2-P5 - The hexadecimal display of the ASCII characters
P6 - The EBCDIC character form of the data
Note: When data has been entered using the Hide function of the fullscreen interface or using TRACESUP=YES, the datastream is replaced by the characters '**SUPPRESSED**'.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Use the trace output to verify that session operation is as desired.
Reason:
A request to connect to the line print daemon was refused by the host. This is usually because the print services process on the host is not active or is not installed.
System Action:
The request is terminated.
User Action:
Determine if printing services are available at the host. If not available contact your network administrator to activate them.
Reason:
A request for TCP/IP print services sent to host P1 was unable to be serviced because the host machine is down.
System Action:
The request is terminated.
User Action:
Advise your system administrator of the host machines problem.
Reason:
A request for TCP/IP print services sent to host P1 was unable to be serviced because the host machine is unreachable.
System Action:
The request is terminated.
User Action:
Advise your system administrator of the problem with the host machine.
Reason:
An LPD request cannot proceed. The target address is IPv6, but the sockets API in region P1 supports IPv4 addresses only.
System Action:
The action terminates.
User Action:
Check the SOCKETS parameter group (/PARMS) in the P1 region. For IPv6 support, the TCP/IP Software Type must specify IBMV6.
Reason:
A line print request SOCKET verb has indicated an error condition.
P1 is the verb which failed. P2, P3 and P4 indicate the error received. P5 is the interpretation of the error code indicating the reason for the failure.
System Action:
The line print request process is terminated.
User Action:
Use the error information to determine the cause of the error. If necessary restart the session.
Reason:
A line print command process did not be start because TCP/IP services are not active.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Use the SHOW TCPIP STATUS command to determine the state of the Interface. If necessary issue the TCPIP START command to activate the interface.
Reason:
The line print command connection request did not recieve a response from the peer host within the one minute limit.
System Action:
The line print process terminates.
User Action:
Use the PING command to determine if the peer host is reachable.
Reason:
The line print command connection was closed by the peer host.
System Action:
The line print command process terminates.
User Action:
Use the PING command to determine if the peer host is reachable.
Reason:
A Line Print request SOCKET verb has indicated an error condition.
P1 is the verb which failed. P2, P3 and P4 indicate the error received.
System Action:
The Line Print request process is terminated.
User Action:
Use the error information to determine the cause of the error. If necessary restart the session.
Reason:
The line print command connection request was not responded to by the peer host before the wait interval expired.
System Action:
The line print process terminates.
User Action:
Use the PING command to determine if the peer host is reachable.
Reason:
The request to delete the print queue entry P1 was rejected by the print server. This may be because the requester does not have sufficient authority at the P2 print server.
System Action:
The print request processing is terminated.
User Action:
Retry the operation and, if unsuccessful, report the problem to your network systems administrator.
Reason:
The delete print queue entry request command was successfully sent to and accepted by the Line Print Daemon.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
A line command was entered against a record that does not support the command.
System Action:
The command is rejected.
User Action:
Choose a different line command.
Reason:
A line command was entered against a record that does not support the command.
System Action:
The command is rejected.
User Action:
Choose a different line command. To display valid line commands, enter ? next to the record.
Reason:
The 'DELETE' command was requested against the first entry in the list. This is not allowed as the only way to recover other deleted entries is by issuing a GetNext request against the first entry.
System Action:
The command is rejected.
User Action:
Choose a different line command.
Reason:
A request was made to initiate the MIB browser but no valid host name or IP address was passed to it. Thus the browser cannot determine what device is to be browsed.
System Action:
The MIB browser does not initialize.
User Action:
Provide a valid host name or IP address and retry.
Reason:
If the MIB browser has not been passed one or more OIDs with which to prime its display it will normally present a list of loaded MIBs from which the user can select the MIBs whose OIDs are to be used to prime the display. This message indicates that no MIB definitions have been loaded and were therefore not available to be selected.
It also means that the browser will not be able to make an intelligent interpretation of the OIDs that are eventually displayed.
System Action:
The MIB browser continues with limited intelligence.
User Action:
If you require a more intelligent display then proceed to the MIB Administration display (/MIBD) and load the MIBs that you require then restart the browser.
Reason:
You have requested the GetNext, GetTable, or Skip line command, or the Walk primary command, but you have specified an invalid GetNext amount. The GetNext amount must be a number between 1 and 100, inclusive.
This value is used by the GetNext action to limit the number of Object IDs requested. The GetTable action uses this value to limit the size of the GetNexts it issues when populating a table. The Skip action is a GetNext action that begins with the first object after the current table or group. The Walk command is a GetNext action performed on the last object in the current MIB Browser.
System Action:
The user request is not actioned.
User Action:
Change the GetNext amount to a value between 1 and 100 inclusive and retry the requested action.
Reason:
An SNMP request has resulted in an IPSNPK09 message which indicates either that SNMP is unavailable on this host or that the SNMP security details supplied with the request did not warrant authorization (in which case the request fails).
System Action:
The SNMP request fails with an IPSNPK09 message.
User Action:
If SNMP is available on the host, then try typing CHGSEC on the command line to change your user-level SNMP security details.
Reason:
The MIBinsight browser does not contain any OIDs for browsing, that is, it is an empty list.
System Action:
The MIBinsight browser continues but no browsing can be done until the browser obtains at least one OID.
User Action:
Issue one of the following primary commands to add OIDs to the browser:
ADDMIB - Adds OIDs from a compiled MIB definition
FIRST - Adds and gets the value for the first OID in the device MIB
OID - Adds a specific OID to the browser (the OID must be provided as a parameter on the command)
WALK - Starts walking through the MIB (this gets the first set of OIDs)
Reason:
The 3270 MIB browser can display a maximum of 9998 list items. This includes MIB objects, groups, tables, and table sort groupings. Your current browser session has more than 9998 items to display. This is not possible.
System Action:
List formatting stops when 9998 items are formatted for display.
User Action:
Hide (collapse) or delete any unnecessary objects to display objects beyond the end of the list.
Reason:
The OID command adds a specific OID to the MIBinsight Browser; therefore, it requires a valid OID as a parameter, otherwise no OID is added.
System Action:
The command is rejected.
User Action:
Include a valid OID as a parameter on the OID command.
Reason:
A line command was entered against a record that does not support the command.
System Action:
The command is rejected.
User Action:
Choose a different line command. To display valid line commands, enter ? next to the record.
Reason:
The initial Object ID provided to the MIBinsight Browser is not a valid Object ID.
System Action:
The MIBinsight Browser continues but does not add the requested Object ID to its display.
User Action:
Restart the MIBinsight Browser and provide a valid Object ID. Alternatively, use the OID command to add a valid Object ID to the MIBinsight Browser display.
Reason:
An SNMP request cannot proceed. The target address is IPv6, but the sockets API on region P1 supports IPv4 addresses only.
System Action:
The action terminates.
User Action:
Check the SOCKETS parameter group (/PARMS) on region P1. For IPv6 support, the TCP/IP Software Type must specify IBMV6.
Reason:
A request was made to the MIB Browser Data Manager to return information for an OID but no OID key was passed to the Data Manager. This should never occur, if it does it would indicate a problem with the MIB Browser
System Action:
The MIB Browser Data Manager returns nothing.
User Action:
Contact your support personnel and pass them the details of your MIB Browser session to see if they can replicate the problem.
Reason:
An error occurred performing an ASSIGN of an MDO. The MDO is identified by P1 , the Map is identified by P2 , the MDO return code is identified by P3 and the MDO Feedback value is identified by P4 .
System Action:
The procedure terminates.
User Action:
Contact your system administrator.
Reason:
The MIB Browser encountered an error when trying to fetch the user's SNMP security information.
System Action:
The MIB Browser will continue the SNMP request using default information
User Action:
Update your SNMP security information using the facility provided. If you are using the 3270 MIB Browser interface then type the 'CHGSEC' command at the command line and press <ENTER>. If you are using the MIB Browser via the NetMaster web interface then click on the 'Change user security details' link.
Reason:
The MIB Browser encountered an error when trying to save the user's SNMP security information. The error feedback code is P1.
System Action:
The MIB Browser will continue to function using default SNMP security.
User Action:
Contact your system administrator.
Reason:
The value of the MIB object indicated by the Object Id in P2 has been successfully changed to the value shown in P3 in the MIB of the device whose IP address is P1 by user P4.
This is simply an informational message to provide an audit trail.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
A GetNext, GetTable, Skip, or Walk request has reached the end of this device's MIB.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Do not issue any further GetNext, GetTable, Skip, or Walk commands because there are no more OIDs available in the device's MIB.
Reason:
A GetGeneric (GetTable) request returned no OIDs that match the generic OID provided. This is probably because a MIB definition was loaded into the browser that contains tables and SNMP levels that do not exist in this device's MIB.
System Action:
No OIDs are returned.
User Action:
Do not issue Get requests for OIDs in this table or SNMP level. We recommend that you delete the table or SNMP level from the MIBinsight browser.
Reason:
A GetGeneric (GetTable) request has returned 10,000 objects and there are more.
System Action:
The request terminates when 10,000 objects are returned.
User Action:
This table is extremely large. Be careful when you perform further GetTable or GetNext requests for this table.
The 3270 MIB browser supports a maximum of 32,767 sort entries (objects, groups, and so on), but displays a maximum of 9,998 lines of output only. The WebCenter MIB browser supports a maximum of 500 objects (plus SNMP groups and sort groupings). After 500 objects are browsed, no more objects are added to the MIB browser until you create space by deleting unwanted objects.
Reason:
Browsing the objects in this MIB has resulted in a list that contains more than 32,767 sort entries.
System Action:
The sorting process has stopped at the 32,767th entry. The resulting list is incomplete.
User Action:
Delete some unwanted objects from your browser list.
Reason:
This is an information message. All OIDs returned by a GetNext request begin with the initial OID. This indicates that all OIDs are probably in a large SNMP Group or Table.
System Action:
The OIDs and their values are returned correctly.
User Action:
If the GetNext is issued for a collapsed SNMP Group or Table, any subsequent GetNexts at the same level return the same OIDs. Try using a GetTable command to populate the entire level, or the Skip command if you are not interested in this level. Alternatively, expand the Group or Table and continue issuing GetNexts from OIDs in the structure.
Reason:
This message is information only. A GetGeneric (GetTable) request has finished populating a table or SNMP group.
System Action:
The request completes.
User Action:
If the table or group is collapsed, expand it to view all objects in this level.
Reason:
The web interface for the MIBinsight Browser limits the number of objects that can be browsed to 500. This maintains a reasonable response time on the web. The browser can display more than 500 lines due to groups and sort groupings being inserted.
System Action:
No new OIDs are added to the display.
User Action:
If you want to browse more OIDs, you must delete unwanted OIDs. Alternatively, use the 3270 interface for the MIBinsight Browser.
Reason:
A Delete OID or Delete MIB command has resulted in P1 objects being removed from the MIBinsight Browser.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
You tried to update an object value, but the MIB browser could not get the SNMP object type which is required for update. Either the object does not exist within the run-time MIB or SNMP access to this object is either unavailable or unauthorized.
System Action:
The MIB browser prevents update access to this object.
User Action:
Determine why the SNMP information could not be accessed. Is an SNMP agent running on the device being browsed? Have the required security levels been set up correctly? If not, fix these issues and try again.
Reason:
You successfully updated the value for MIB object P1.
System Action:
The MIBinsight browser returns you to either the main browser display or the 'Object Details' display in browse mode, showing the new value for the MIB object.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
You tried updating the value of a MIB object with a value other than an integer when the syntax of the object indicates that it can only contain an integer value (e.g. INTEGER, TruthValue, TestAndIncr, etc.)
System Action:
Update is rejected.
User Action:
Enter a valid integer value and try again.
Reason:
This is an informational message to remind you that you can type CHGSEC on the command line while browsing a MIB if you need to change your user-level SNMP security details for the host whose MIB you are browsing.
System Action:
None
User Action:
None
Reason:
A request was made to update MIB browser user security details, but no host name or IP address was passed on the request. Therefore the correct user security details cannot be determined.
System Action:
The MIB browser user security details interface terminates.
User Action:
Provide a host name or IP address and retry.
Reason:
The Security Level value indicates either authentication or privacy. The field specified in P1 is required.
System Action:
The field is highlighted.
User Action:
Enter a value in field P1 .
Reason:
An invalid value has been entered in field P1 . Correct values for this field are described in P2 .
System Action:
The value is rejected.
User Action:
Correct the value.
Reason:
The field P1 has been omitted. This field is required when field
P2 has the value P3 .
System Action:
The omitted field is highlighted.
User Action:
Enter a value in the field.
Reason:
You have entered a password in a non-display field. This message prompts you to reenter the password for confirmation.
System Action:
Processing continues.
User Action:
Reenter the password.
Reason:
The password value entered for confirmation differs from the value first entered.
System Action:
The password value is rejected.
User Action:
Reenter the password.
Reason:
An attempt to access the MIB import/export dataset failed. No import/export dataset is allocated to the region.
System Action:
The MIB compile may fail.
User Action:
The MIB import/export dataset (IPMIBX) is defined in the IPFILES parameter group. Review this parameter group and ensure that a dataset is defined for IPMIBX.
Reason:
An error occurred when trying to perform a P1 action on the IPMIBX Data Set. The Error Code is P2 .
System Action:
The MIB Compilation will continue processing, but errors may result.
User Action:
The Error Code P2 is the RPLERRCD value returned by the VSAM macro. Look up the RPLERRCD value in the IBM Manual 'DFSMS Macro Instructions for Datasets'. If the cause of the problem is not evident, contact your System Administrator. After addressing the Data Set problem the MIB Compilation should be retried.
Reason:
The compiled data for MIB P1 has been saved successfully.
System Action:
No further action.
User Action:
No action.
Reason:
An attempt was made to read MIB data from an external file but no data was returned. The file is either an empty HFS file or sequential file, or a PDS file.
System Action:
Request fails and control is returned to the user.
User Action:
Make sure you have specified the correct file name for the external source file. The source file must be a HFS file or a sequential file containing data, or a PDS member containing data.
Reason:
The MIB "Browse Source" function was requested but no source was found for the saved MIB definition specified or for the external file provided
System Action:

Reason:
A socket error occurred. The socket action was P1 , the return code was
P2 , the feedback code was P3 , the error number was P4 - P5 is the name of the error, and the TCPIP vendor specific error code is P6 .
System Action:
The action fails. But recovery is attempted.
User Action:
If the problem persists determine the cause from the error codes and correct the problem.
Reason:
A message was received by the ICMP message processor which is not an IP version 4 packet. This packet is ignored. The first part of the packet is shown in P1 .
System Action:
The message is discarded and processing continues.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
An SNMP GET response message contained an unexpected error indication.
P1 is the error code; possible values are:
1 - too big
3 - bad value
4 - read only
5 - general error.
P2 was the OID requested by the GET opeartion.
P3 was the OID returned in the response.
System Action:
The current test is not performed.
User Action:
Determine and correct the cause of the error.
Reason:
A socket operation has failed because the TCP/IP interface is down.
System Action:
ICMP event detectors wait for the TCP/IP interface to be restarted.
User Action:
The TCP/IP interface is started by the SOCKETS parameter group. Check the parameter group for error messages.
To restart the TCP/IP interface, action the SOCKETS parameter group.
Reason:
Console event detectors cannot operate because the AOM interface has been stopped. AOM is used to intercept console messages.
System Action:
Console event detectors wait for AOM to be restarted.
User Action:
Investigate why AOM is inactive.
To restart AOM, action the OPSYSIDS parameter group.
Reason:
An ARB mode of RED indicates critical flow congestion on an RTP Pipe.
System Action:
The receiver reduces its send rate by 50%.
User Action:
To view information about this RTP pipe, enter the A (Analyze) command next to this alert. From the resulting RTP display, many diagnostic actions are available including the following:
If you have linked CA NetMaster regions, F5 (Remote/Local) toggles between this and the remote end of the pipe.
If you have CA NetMaster NM for SNA running in this region, F10 (Sessions) shows the SNA LU-LU sessions that use this pipe.
To run the RTP Health Check, enter the CH (Check) command next to this alert.
Use the RTP Pipe List (shortcut /RTP) to examine all RTP Pipes.
See all APPN/HPR : RTP Management functions from shortcut /APPNHPR.
If you are only interested in RTP Pipes that use Enterprise Extender, use the EE-specific RTP Pipe List and Health Check (shortcut /EE).
Reason:
The number of current TCP connections between the specified partners has dropped to below the required minimum number, which is p5.
At least p5 TCP connections must exist at all times between these connection endpoints:
The Packet Analyzer has detected one of these connections ending, which has left the number of remaining connections too low.
Connections in any TCP status (not just ESTABLISHED) are counted.
For a minimum connection count of 1, this alert indicates that there are currently no TCP connections between the specified partners.
This alert is raised by a CONNSTAT Packet Analyzer event detector.
System Action:
Business functions that depend on these TCP connections are negatively impacted.
If there are no TCP connections between these end points, then the remote partner has no connectivity or access to the z/OS application.
If there are too few TCP connections between these end points, then application throughput, volume, or other functions can be impaired.
User Action:
Investigate why the TCP connections between these partners ended, were not started, or could not be started. Try and restart the connections.
If there are repeated connection problems, some of these steps can help:
Reason:
Setup of an SSL/TLS connection between the specified partners below has failed in the SSL handshake phase.
This alert is raised by a SSLHFAIL Packet Analyzer event detector.
System Action:
None. The SSL/TLS connection is not established.
User Action:
Ensure that each endpoint supports SSL/TLS.
Some causes of SSL handshake failure include:
Use the /SECURE options to see if there are currently any other successful SSL/TLS connections involving either endpoint.
You can repeat the failing connection attempt while using SmartTrace. This will show the full SSL handshake packet flow, requests and responses.
Reason:
A TCP Reset (RST packet) was sent by TCP server p2:p3 to client p4.
This alert is raised by a SVRRESET Packet Analyzer event detector.
System Action:
None. The TCP connection is terminated.
User Action:
Generally, TCP Server Reset is sent when the TCP server does not like the data it received from the client, such as when there are problems with the handshake or with the application-level protocol.
Use a Connection List to see whether this TCP Server currently has successful connections with any other clients.
Check the TCP Server address space job log, application logs, and system log for any application problems.
If server resets happen repeatedly on a connection, use SmartTrace to see the exact packet flow.
Reason:
A TCP connection between the following partners has ended:
This alert is raised by a TCPEND Packet Analyzer event detector.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Bring the connection end to the attention of the appropriate group to investigate the area of the specific TCP Connection End reason code.
If the connection should be up all the time, attempt to reconnect.
The reason code can indicate the following conditions:
Reason:
A restricted TCP connection has started, between these partners:
This alert is raised by a TCPSTART Packet Analyzer event detector.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
User action depends on why this connection is significant and why it was specified as being restricted.
It may indicate unexpected activity, or a possible security breach.
Use Connection Lists to see what other connections currently involve either of the connection partners. From this list, you can also drop connections.
Use SmartTrace to view the packet flow and packet content (if not encrypted) on the connection.
Reason:
Network interface p2 on stack p1 is inactive.
This alert is raised by a IFSTATUS Packet Analyzer event detector.
System Action:
None. Connections flowing over the interface are interrupted.
User Action:
Use the diagnostic options at /DEVLINK to investigate the interface failure.
Reason:
The IP packet fragmentation rate for type p3 packets exceeded the specified threshold rate, which is p4 fragmented packets within p5 seconds.
The Packet Analyzer detected this fragmentation on conversations between stack p1 and remote network p2.
High fragmentation can contribute to increased packet loss or packet retransmissions. These conditions in turn can result in increased response times and higher processing load as the end point must reassemble the packets.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Fragmentation is needed when a datagram is bigger than the physical frame size of the network. The condition can be caused by incorrect sizing of the maximum transmission unit (MTU).
Locate the remote hops for which most datagrams are being fragmented. Frame size is determined by the MTU size. TCP/IP uses the MTU to see if fragmentation is needed.
Consider Implementing Path MTU Discovery
On z/OS, the MTU used for a particular outbound send can vary, depending on the configuration.
If IP traffic from this z/OS stack crosses multiple hops with different MTU sizes, you should enable path MTU discovery (IPCONFIG PATHMTUDISCOVERY). This statement discovers and uses an MTU size that will reach the final hop without needing fragmentation.
(Without path MTU discovery, the send uses the smaller of the interface MTU (from the stack interface physical device links) or the configured route MTU.) Path MTU discovery is usually off by default.
For discussions of MTU considerations and fragmentation considerations, see the IBM z/OS Communications Server IP Configuration Guide.
To see how to use the PING command with the PMTU parameter and large outbound packet lengths to determine the path MTU size to a host, see the IBM z/OS Communications Server IP Diagnosis Guide.
Other Fragmentation Information
The Advanced Connection List (/CONNCF) can list all TCP connections where local or remote fragmentation has been observed.
Stack Performance History (/STKPERF.IP) includes stack-wide performance attributes ipFrag%, ipFragFailed, ipFragFailed%, and ipFragOk.
(This alert is raised by a FRAGMENT Packet Analyzer event detector.)
Reason:
An attempt to connect to the SSI address space to the PAEVENT feature EPS server failed with the return code p1 and optionally, key code p2.
System Action:
Packet Analyzer supported event detectors are not operative. The system will retry the connection after a delay.
User Action:
Ensure that the SSI is running and configured with the Packet Analyzer.
Issue the OCS command SSI STATUS.
The response should contain these messages:
NFST01 PACKET ANALYZER FEATURE IS ACTIVE
NF1003 PACKET ANALYZER VERSION IS 120.01
The Packet Analyzer version must be 120.01 or later. Earlier versions do not support event detectors.
If the SSI is running and configured correctly, then contact Technical Support.
Reason:
The event detectors that rely on the Packet Analyzer (PA) for real-time input are inoperative. The SOLVE SSI cannot be contacted, or there was an error while trying to access the PA event server.
The following event detectors are affected by this condition:
CONNSTAT - TCP Connection Status
FRAGMENT - IP Packet Fragmentation
NOLISTEN - TCP Conn Attempt Fail No Listener Port
SSLHFAIL - SSL Handshake Failure
SVRRESET - TCP Server Connection RESET
TCPEND - TCP Connection Ended
TCPSTART - TCP Connection Started
All existing alerts for these detectors are closed, and no new alerts are raised until the SSI connection has been re-established.
System Action:
Packet Analyzer supported event detectors are not operative. The region keeps retrying the connection at regular intervals.
User Action:
If there is an additional specific message associated with this alert, check the help for that message. This alert is raised if the SSI is shutting down or terminates. The alert automatically closes when the SSI connection is re-established successfully.
Ensure that the SSI is running and configured with the Packet Analyzer. Check the associated text for this alert for indicators of the SSI's status and version, and the Packet Analyzer's processing level.
Issue the OCS command, SSI STATUS, to determine whether the SSI is running and its version. The response contains these messages:
NFST01 PACKET ANALYZER FEATURE IS ACTIVE
NF1003 PACKET ANALYZER VERSION IS 120.01
The Packet Analyzer version must be at least 120.01. Earlier versions do not support event detectors.
The Packet Analyzer level must be at NOSTATS or higher. If the level is not at the maximum, then the SSI STATUS command output contains the following additional messages indicating the current level:
NF1011 PACKET ANALYZER EXECUTION LEVEL IS: NOSTATS
NF1012... PROCESSING. EVENTS: YES PACKETS: YES TRACE: YES STATS: NO P-EVENTS: YES
The NF1012 message must indicate "P-EVENTS: YES" for event detectors to be operative. If this is not the case, change the Packet Analyzer level using one of the following methods. The required minimum level is NOSTATS. Level=FULL is highly recommended.
SSISEND PACTL LEVEL=pa_level
If the SSI is running and configured correctly, then contact Technical Support.
Reason:
An error occurred while attempting to define an event detector to the Packet Analyzer (PA). The specific event detector is inoperative; other detectors are not affected.
p1 identifies the inoperative detector.
All existing alerts for this detector are closed, and no new alerts are raised until the error is resolved.
System Action:
The identified event detector is inoperative and will not detect the desired events.
Error messages describing the error in more detail are written to the activity log.
User Action:
Gather the messages from the activity log, and contact Technical Support.
Reason:
A TCP Reset (RST packet) was sent by stack p1 in response to a SYN request from client p4 because there was no TCP server task listening on p2 port number p3.
This alert is raised by a NOLISTEN Packet Analyzer event detector.
System Action:
None.
The TCP connection fails to establish.
User Action:
When a TCP listener port is not active and clients attempt to connect to that port, the stack automatically sends a reset back to the client, failing the connection attempt.
Continual or multiple occurrences of this failure commonly indicate a misconfigured client, whose server port setting is incorrect.
Check if this server port should be active and in use. If so, start the application task that enables the port listener.
If this server port is deliberately unassigned, check if the client task is misconfigured.
Another possibility is that a client may be deliberately scanning many ports, searching for a server that can be compromised.
If you think this may be happening, alert your network security group to the suspected violation and provide them with details of the client. SmartTrace can be used to trace that client's activity with this LPAR or IP host.
Reason:
Too many SSL Handshake Failure alerts were opened at once by the p1 event detector p2.
Its Active Alert Limit is p3.
As a safety measure, this event detector has now been disabled.
The number of alerts indicates that excessive numbers of SSL/TLS connections failed during the security negotiation stage.
This alert is raised by alert limit processing for an SSLHFAIL Packet Analyzer event detector.
System Action:
The SSL/TLS connection is not established.
The event detector has been set to INACTIVE, to prevent additional alerts from flooding the Alert Monitor.
All the previous alerts opened by this event detector have been closed. They can be viewed using the Alert History.

To see the other failures, use the Alert History.
To review the exact criteria for this event detector, use /EDETECT.
Step 2. Look for a common cause of the SSL Handshake Failures
Ensure that each end point supports SSL/TLS.
Some causes of SSL handshake failure include:
Use the /SECURE options to see if there are currently any other successful SSL/TLS connections involving either endpoint.
You can repeat the failing connection attempt while using SmartTrace. This will show the full SSL handshake packet flow, requests and responses.

Step 2. Look for a reason for the connections ending
Bring the connections ended to the attention of the appropriate group to investigate the area of the specific TCP Connection End reason code (if relevant).
If the connection should be up all the time, attempt to reconnect.
The reason code can indicate the following conditions:
Reason:
Too many restricted TCP Connection alerts were opened at once by the p1 event detector p2.
Its Active Alert Limit is p3.
As a safety measure, this event detector has now been disabled.
The number of alerts indicates that excessive numbers of restricted TCP/IP connections have been started.
This alert is raised by alert limit processing for a TCPSTART Packet Analyzer event detector.

To see the other failures, use the Alert History.
To review the exact criteria for this event detector, use /EDETECT.
Step 2. Investigate the need for the restricted TCP Connections
This step depends on why these connections are significant and why they were specified as being restricted.
It may indicate unexpected activity, or a possible security breach.
Use Connection Lists to see what other connections currently involve either of the connection partners. From this list, you can also drop connections.
Use SmartTrace to view the packet flow and packet content (if not encrypted) on the connection.
Reason:
Too many Connect attempt rejected alerts were opened at once by the p1 event detector p2.
Its Active Alert Limit is p3.
As a safety measure, this event detector has been disabled.
The number of alerts indicates that excessive numbers of TCP connection attempts are being reset by the stack due to no listener on the server port.
This alert is raised by alert limit processing for a NOLISTEN Packet Analyzer event detector.
System Action:
The TCP connection fails to establish.
The event detector has been set to INACTIVE, to prevent additional alerts from flooding the Alert Monitor.
All the previous alerts opened by this event detector have been closed. They can be viewed using the Alert History.

Reason:
Too many IP Packet Fragmentation alerts were opened at once by the p1 event detector p2.
Its Active Alert Limit is p3.
As a safety measure, this event detector has now been disabled.
The number of alerts indicates that an excessive and/or prolonged rate of packet fragmentation is occurring.
High fragmentation can contribute to increased packet loss or packet retransmissions. These conditions in turn can result in increased response times and higher processing load as the end point must reassemble the packets.
This alert is raised by alert limit processing for an FRAGMENT Packet Analyzer event detector.
System Action:
The event detector has been set to INACTIVE to prevent additional alerts from flooding the Alert Monitor.
All the previous alerts opened by this event detector have been closed. They can be viewed using the Alert History.

Reason:
Packet Tracing is unavailable for one of the following reasons:
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Check the status of the SSI region.
If the SSI is active, check why it is not running with the SSI parameter PALEVEL=FULL.
When including Packet Analyzer functions in an SSI, we recommend that you always set the PALEVEL parameter to FULL. If you run with a level other than FULL, various IP monitoring functions will not be available.
Only use a PALEVEL other than FULL if instructed by CA Support.
Reason:
An attempt to activate a trace failed. The current utilization of the trace database in the SSI is above 80%, at which point any new trace requests are rejected.
System Action:
The action fails.
User Action:
To see the current SSI trace database size, use /IPTEST.
To free space in the trace database, delete any ACTIVE or ENDED trace that is no longer required.
If this condition occurs frequently, consider increasing the database size on the next restart of the SOLVE SSI region. The database size is set by SSI startup parameter, PTRCDBSIZE.

System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
You activated a SmartTrace; however, the stack you want to trace is not being processed by the packet analyzer. Tracing will start when the stack is enabled to the packet analyzer.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Investigate why the stack is not being processed by the packet analyzer. Possibly it was disabled using a STACK UNHOOK command to the SSI. Alternatively, there may have been a failure in the packet analyzer. Look for error messages in the JESMSG log in the SSI region.
Reason:
The export operation finished.
P1 is the total number of packets exported.
P2 is the number of packets truncated.
P3 is the number of packets not traced due to storage shortage.
P4 is the maximum length encountered for a physical packet.
Note: The truncation may be due to the following:
- The logical record length (LRECL) of the Physical Sequential (PS) data set is smaller than the saved packet length.
- The saved packet size is bigger than 64 KB. The part of the packet that fits is exported.
- The CTRACE trace includes packets already truncated by the CTRACE function.
- The user that performed the export does not have read authorization for SmartTrace. The data portion is stripped of TCP and UDP packets.
For details on packets not traced due to storage shortage, see the IPPT5019 message.
System Action:

Reason:
The DECODE command prompting has terminated because the current list is filtered on Port P1 that is being decoded as P2. This occurs because of one of the following reasons:
System Action:
Processing terminated.
User Action:
If prompting terminated because of the first reason, issue the DECODE P2 CLEAR command to stop decoding so that Port P1 can be decoded using another protocol. Reissue the DECODE command.
The second reason indicates that Port P1 cannot be decoded with any other protocol. If required, you can refresh the display temporarily without the decoded information by issuing the TCPSUMM command.
Reason:
A command has failed because the target linked region is of an earlier version that does not support the command.
System Action:
The command is rejected.
User Action:
None.

The TAGCLR command is rejected because an invalid tag number was specified.
System Action:
The command is rejected.
User Action:
Reissue the command with a valid tag number (1 to 9).
Reason:
The P1 command was terminated because you do not have authority to view packet data. Your viewing of packets are limited to the IP and protocol headers.
System Action:
The command is terminated.
User Action:
Contact your security administrator.
For information about SmartTrace security requirements, see the Security Guide.
Reason:
The DECODE command has been disabled as the required internal tables for port decoding is either corrupted or could not be located.
System Action:
Command processing is terminated.
User Action:
Contact Technical Support for assistance in restoring the internal table.
Reason:
A request to export a trace will be processed without the packet payload data because of insufficient authority.
SmartTrace security has two levels of authority. Full authority permits a user to define, delete, start and stop tracing, export, and view all contents of a traced packet. Partial authority has a similar scope, but the user cannot view the payload data of any traced packet. For TCP and UDP packets, any data that follows the TCP or UDP header is removed.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
If full authority is required, contact your security administrator.
Reason:
No traces exist that were created by a PT command against a resource for the selected system. If traces were previously activated, they are deleted if not referenced or saved after a certain period.
You can activate a trace using the PT command as follows:
System Action:
None.
User Action:
If a trace has been recently activated, check that the correct System is specified. Enter ? to display the names of all monitored system images.

System Action:
None.
User Action:
None. It is not possible to start a trace of this connection at this time.
Reason:
A multiple TCP connection trace has reached its specified maximum number of connections.
System Action:
No further traces are created for P1.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
A multiple TCP connection trace has attempted to trace a new connection, but the attempt failed because the trace database has insufficient storage.
System Action:
Trace creation does not occur. Packets from the connection are not traced.
User Action:
To see the current SSI trace database size, use /IPTEST.
To free space in the trace database, delete any ACTIVE or ENDED trace that is no longer required.
If this condition occurs frequently, consider increasing the database size on the next restart of the SOLVE SSI region. The database size is set by SSI startup parameter, PTRCDBSIZE.
Reason:
A SmartTrace trace has stopped or is in the process of stopping because the defined stop condition has been matched.
System Action:
If a numeric value other than 0 was defined for the Packets After Stop option, the trace waits for the specified number of extra packets to be collected; otherwise, the trace ends.
User Action:
Review the trace results.
Reason:
A Packet Analyzer request to the SOLVE SSI failed because the SSI is running with an old version of the software.
System Action:
The request fails.
User Action:
Update the SSI to the latest version of the product.

System Action:
The action is rejected.
User Action:
If traffic is expected, check the status of the remote address.
Reason:
A request for a list of remote addresses has been sent to the Packet Analyzer. The request failed because the Packet Analyzer has seen no activity from stack P1 to any remote address in network P2 (if shown), or else no activity to any remote address.
System Action:
The request fails.
User Action:
If the Packet Analyzer has been restarted recently, wait a while and reissue this command. If the Packet Analyzer has not been restarted recently, check the status of the network.
Reason:
The SSI is currently running with PALEVEL set to NOPACKETS or NOSTATS. Packet statistics are available only when PALEVEL is FULL.
System Action:
The RI command displays without packet statistics. The BI command is not displayed.
User Action:
Check why the SSI is not running with PALEVEL=FULL.
The PALEVEL setting can be altered using the SSI's PACTL command. SSI commands can be entered from a region using the SSISEND command, for example:
SSISEND PACTL PALEVEL=FULL
Reason:

If P2 is NOSUCHOBJECT and you are using SNMP v3 to access the host, make sure your SNMP v3 user is associated with a view that includes the IF-MIB.
Alternatively, this error message may indicate a problem with the host's MIB.
Reason:
An SNMP request cannot proceed. The target address is IPv6, but the sockets API on region P1 supports IPv4 addresses only.
System Action:
The action terminates.
User Action:
Check the SOCKETS parameter group (/PARMS) on region P1. For IPv6 support, the TCP/IP Software Type must specify IBMV6.
Reason:
An SNMP request cannot proceed. The sockets interface in region P1 is not active.
System Action:
The request terminates.
User Action:
To activate the sockets interface, enter /PARMS and action the SOCKETS parameter group.
Reason:
The source address is not a valid home address for the stack shown in P1. The source address is specified as part of the IP node resource definition. This error occurs because of one of the following reasons:
System Action:
The SNMP request terminates with a socket error.
User Action:
Specify a valid value in the Source Address field of the IP node resource definition.
Reason:
No dataset name specified.
System Action:
The action terminates.
User Action:
Retry, specifying the dataset name. The dataset is specified using the DSN= and MBR= operands as follows:
For a physical sequential (PS) dataset: DSN= full dataset name
For a member of a partitioned sequential (PO) dataset (a PDS), use one of two options:
- DSN= full dataset name, including the member name in parentheses. Example: DSN=PROD.TCPIP.IPTRACE(TRACE1)
- DSN= dataset name and MBR= member name. Example: DSN=PROD.TCPIP.IPTRACE MBR=TRACE1
Note that a specific member name must be entered; generic member names are not supported.
Reason:
The dataset name does not conform to OS/390 dataset name standards.
System Action:
The action terminates.
User Action:
Retry, specifying a dataset name in the correct format. The dataset is specified using the DSN= and MBR= operands as follows:
For a physical sequential (PS) dataset: DSN= full dataset name
For a member of a partitioned sequential (PO) dataset (a PDS), use one of two options:
- DSN= full dataset name, including the member name in parentheses. Example: DSN=PROD.TCPIP.IPTRACE(TRACE1)
- DSN= dataset name and MBR= member name. Example: DSN=PROD.TCPIP.IPTRACE MBR=TRACE1
Note that a specific member name must be entered; generic member names are not supported.
Reason:
The dataset name specified by the DSN= parameter is a partitioned dataset but no member name was supplied.
System Action:
The action terminates.
User Action:
Retry, specifying the dataset name and member name.
For a member of a partitioned sequential (PO) dataset (a PDS), use one of two options:
- DSN= full dataset name, including the member name in parentheses. Example: DSN=PROD.TCPIP.IPTRACE(TRACE1)
- DSN= dataset name and MBR= member name. Example: DSN=PROD.TCPIP.IPTRACE MBR=TRACE1
Note that a specific member name must be entered; generic member names are not supported.
Reason:
The dataset name specified using the DSN= parameter has a dataset organization which is not supported. The dataset organization must be either PS or PO.
System Action:
The action terminates.
User Action:
Retry, specifying the correct dataset name.
Reason:
The dataset name, or member, either does not exist or is empty.
System Action:
The action terminates.
User Action:
Retry, specifying another dataset name.
Reason:
The dataset identified by the DSN= and MBR= operands exists, but no TCP/IP Services trace header messages were found. Trace header messages are identified by message N3B106.
System Action:
The action terminates.
User Action:
Ensure that the correst dataset name and/or member name were specified. Check the dataset to ensure that it is an extract from a SOLVE activity log that contains SOLVE TCP/IP Services trace messages.
Reason:
The trace dataset is read and IP trace Receive and Send blocks are extracted and saved in an MDO. The MDO assignment for a block of trace data has failed because the size of the MDO exceeds the design limits. The location where this occurred is indicated by the relative (Receive or Send) block count ( P1 ), and the input line number ( P2 ).
System Action:
The action terminates.
User Action:
The trace dataset must be split to multiple datasets. Use the line number as a guide - split the dataset at the beginning of a Receive or Send block preceeding the indicated line number.
Reason:
The associated PDU is an SNMPv3 PDU which is encrypted. The trace formatter is unable to decrypt the PDU. This means that some information (such as reqtype and OID#) is unavailable and will show blank in the selection list.
System Action:
Processing continues.
User Action:
The trace formatter will decrypt encrypted PDUs if a SNMP host details record exists for the remote IP address, and the record contains a privacy key applicable to the traced PDU. Check the host details using /IPADMIN.S
Reason:
The request to display the routing table for the specified host failed as the routing table cannot be accessed. Possible causes include:
- SNMP not authorized
- no routing table exists. This may be a gateway host or bridge.

An attempt was made to start the TCP/IP Trend Event Listener but it was already running.
System Action:
The existing TCP/IP Trend Event Listener continues processing.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
The TCP/IP Trend Event Listener encountered an error when trying to do a P1 command on the IPFILE database. The return code is P2. The TCP/IP Trend Event Listener will not accumulate this hourly summary data into the total summary for this 4-hour or daily period.
System Action:
The TCP/IP Trend Event Listener ignores this event and continues processing. The accumulated trend record(s) for the device/attribute shown will not include the data from this hourly summary event.
User Action:
Determine why the NDB error occurred. Contact your Systems Administrator for further assistance.
Reason:
The TCP/IP Trend Event Listener has set its profile and is ready to receive and process summary trend events from the IP Node Monitor, CISCO Interface Processor, and TCP/IP Stack.
System Action:
The TCP/IP Trend Event Listener commences processing.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
An MDO ASSIGN error occurred. The MDO is identified by P1 the ASN1 map name by P2 the return code by P3 and the feedback code is P4 .
System Action:
The TCP/IP Trend Event Listener terminates. No trend data can be collected until this problem is rectified and the procedure restarted.
User Action:
Contact your Systems Administrator. Probably an installation error. Ensure that the ASN1 map named in the message has been correctly installed.
Reason:
The TCP/IP Trend Event Listener encountered a P1 that it did not recognize for resource P3 , attribute P4 . The value of the unknown
P1 was P2 .
System Action:
The TCP/IP Trend Event Listener ignores this trend event and continues processing.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
The TCP/IP Trend Event Listener generated a key length that was too long for IPFILE. The length of the key was P1 and the value of the key was " P2 ".
System Action:
This record is not added to IPFILE. The data for the resource and attribute shown in the key are not accumulated in any trend data. The Trend Event Listener ignores this event and continues processing.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
An IPFILE record was found for key P3 but the existing record type of
P2 does not match the incoming event type of P1
Possible internal causes include: More than one monitor using the same attribute identifier. A monitor changing its definition of the attribute identifier.
System Action:
The Trend Event Listener will ignore this event and continue processing.
Report data for this resource/attribute will be incomplete.
User Action:
Contact your Systems Administrator.
Reason:
The incoming trend event for resource ID P3 attribute P4 contains a summary P1 field value " P2 " which has an incorrect date or time format.
System Action:
The Trend Event Listener ignores this event and continues processing.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
The incoming trend event for resource ID P3 attribute P4 has an invalid P1 total field value of " P2 ".
System Action:
The Trend Event Listener ignores this event and continues processing.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
The incoming trend event for Resource ID P4 Attribute P5 has at least one invalid gauge avg/min/max value.
System Action:
The Trend Event Listener will ignore this event and continue processing.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
The incoming trend event for Resource ID P3 Attribute P4 has an invalid enumerated period/value pair. The period in minutes is " P1 " and the value is " P2 "
System Action:
The Trend Event Listener will ignore this event and continue processing.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
The number of trend events waiting to be processed by the Trend Event Listener has exceeded your system's NMIQLIM setting. All trend events exceeding this limit are discarded.
System Action:
The Trend Event Listener continues processing. Lost data cannot be accumulated and subsequent totals are inaccurate.
User Action:
Investigate why the message build up occured. If you are collecting trend data in a very large network, you may have maximum NMIQLIM value. Consider redesigning your application or contact Technical Support.
Reason:
A run time error was encountered by Trend Listener procedure $IPTD21W. This message heads a message group consisting of multiple instances of message IPTD2114. These contain details of the specific error, and information identifying the trend or summary event that caused the error
System Action:
The summary or trend event that caused the error is discarded. Processing continues with the next event.
User Action:
If this message appears continually, contact your Systems Administrator.
Reason:
This is part of a message group issued for run-time Trend Listener errors. It contains run- time error details, and information from the event that caused the error.
System Action:
The event is discarded. Processing continues with the next event.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
The trend report data for the resource and attribute referred to in the file key P1 is too long to be contained in a single IPFILE record. This is usually results when regular Trend Data Rollups have not been run. Trend Data Rollups delete old, expired data from the file, making room for the newest data to be added.
System Action:
The accumulated data for this period/resource/attribute is not updated. The new data is discarded and will not be reflected in future reports for this resource. The Trend Event Listener continues processing.
User Action:
Ensure that the Trend Data Rollup procedure $IPTD23W runs regularly. It should automatically run whenever the region starts: check the Activity Log for any errors. You can also set a regular daily rollup time using Customizer ( /PARMS ) Parameter group IPFILES 'Time of day to extract' files.
Reason:
An attempt was made to start the TCP/IP Trend Event Rollup Procedure but it was already running.
System Action:
The existing TCP/IP Trend Data Rollup Procedure continues.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
The TCP/IP Trend Data Rollup encountered an error when trying to do a P1 command on the IPFILE database. The return code is P2. The TCP/IP Trend Data Rollup can therefore not accumulate the data referenced by this key.
System Action:
Processing continues. The data for the resource and attribute shown in the key will be disregarded and will not be reflected in any totals.
User Action:
Determine why the NDB error occurred. Contact your System Administrator for further assistance.
Reason:
The TCP/IP Trend Event Rollup generated a key length that was too long for IPFILE. The length of the key was P1 , the value of the key was " P2 "
System Action:
This record will not be added to IPFILE. The data for the resource and attribute shown in the key will not be accumulated in any trend data. The Trend Event Rollup will ignore this data and continue processing.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
An MDO ASSIGN error occurred. The MDO is identified by P1 the ASN1 map name by P2 the return code by P3 and the feedback code is P4 .
System Action:
The TCP/IP Trend Data Rollup procedure terminates. No sequential IPTREND dataset will be produced.
User Action:
Contact your System Administrator. Probably installation error. Ensure that the ASN1 map named in the message has been correctly installed.

Reason:
An attempt was made to run the IPTREND Data Warehouse Conversion Utility but the dataset name of the sequential IPTREND file to be converted was not specified via the DSN= keyword. The utility attempted to use the default IPTREND dataset name, but this has not been set. (The default name is usually set when a name is specified for the IPTREND dataset in the TCP/IP Administration / Set System Parameters / Reporting Configuration menu).
System Action:
The IPTREND Data Warehouse Conversion is not performed.
User Action:
Specify the dataset name of the IPTREND file using the DSN= keyword.
Reason:
The IPTREND Data Warehouse Conversion Utility encountered a file error attempting an operation on the sequential IPTREND file P5
System Action:
The IPTREND Data Warehouse Conversion is terminated. Conversion of all eligible IPTREND file records may not be complete.
User Action:
Correct the dataset error and retry the conversion.
Reason:
This is an informational message indicating that dynamic VIPA P1 has moved from lpar- stack P2 to P3.
System Action:
None
User Action:
None
Reason:
The message contains status information about the progress and status of the IPTREND Data Warehouse conversion.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
If the conversion fails, examine the log for specific error messages.
Reason:
The IPTREND Data Warehouse Conversion Utility could not correctly parse the sequential IPTREND file. There is a mismatch between the field seperator value present in the file (usually a comma) and the value of the DELIM keyword (defaults to a comma).
System Action:
The IPTREND Data Warehouse Conversion is terminated.
User Action:
Examine the IPTREND file to see what delimiter it was created with, and re-run the conversion specifying the correct DELIM value.
If the file delimiter is a comma, the default will be correct.
If the file delimiter is a semicolon, specify DELIM=SEMICOLON
If the file delimiter is the tab character (X'05'), specify DELIM=TAB
If the file delimiter is any other character, eg. / specify DELIM=/
If the DELIM keyword is omitted, a comma is used.
The delimiter or field seperator used in an IPTREND file is set on the NetworkIT NetMaster TCP/IP region that created the IPTREND file, in the Administration/Set System Parameters/Reporting Configuration menu.
An IPTREND file created on one NetMaster region may be converted to Data Warehouse format by another NetMaster region, providing:
a. The delimiter is correctly specified, if different from a comma.
b. The NetMaster regions run on the same OS/390 system. This is because the Sysplex and System ID from the converting region are assigned to any Resource records created by the conversion process.
Reason:
The IPTREND Data Warehouse Conversion Utility encountered a error while attempting to queue a Data Warehouse update for converted IPTREND file data. This message indicates the return codes from the Data Warehouse Adaptor code and details that identify the fact entry being added.
System Action:
The IPTREND Data Warehouse Conversion is terminated. Conversion of all eligible IPTREND file records may not be complete.
User Action:
Contact your support representative. Provide any Activity Log output associated with the failing conversion.
Reason:
An attempt was made to run the IPTREND Data Warehouse Conversion Utility but no Data Warehouse Services Servers have been defined on this region to receive the data.
Data produced by IPTREND file conversions, as well as live reporting data produced by a NetMaster Network Management for TCP/IP region, requires a Data Warehouse Services Server to be defined and active on the same region.
Sample and converted data is converted to an XML document format understood by the ReportCenter Data Warehouse Adaptor. These documents are placed on a queue in your VFS file for processing by the DWS Server.
The DWS Server takes documents from this queue and forwards them to the Data Warehouse Adaptor.
If too many documents accumulate in the queue without any active servers to forward them, queue overflows and consequent loss of data are likely.
System Action:
The IPTREND Data Warehouse Conversion is not performed.
User Action:
Define and activate at least one Data Warehouse Services Server, then retry the conversion. Servers are defined using Option MS.WS from this region's primary menu.
Reason:
An attempt to perform connection workload monitoring failed. P1 shows the error message.
System Action:
No sample is taken.
User Action:
See message P1 for more information.
Reason:
The connection workload monitoring procedure found that the Packet Analyser does not know about the P1 stack.
The most likely cause is that this is a CA TCPaccess stack that does not have the requisite level of maintenance for Packet Analyzer support.
System Action:
No connection workload monitoring is performed for this stack.
User Action:
Do the following:
If the cause of the problem is not apparent, contact Technical Support.
Reason:
An error has occurred during setup of FTP or Telnet workload monitoring. The event receiver has discovered the same hostname P3 is used by both stack P1 and P2 .
System Action:
All FTP workload for host P3 will be reported under stack P2. Any Telnet workload for host P3 that uses a telnet server running in its own address space will be reported under stack P2.
User Action:
Review why the two stacks have the same hostname. The event receiver uses the UNIX hostname command and DNR to extract stack hostnames.
Reason:
An error occurred while manipulating an NCL VARTABLE for Telnet or FTP workload monitoring. P1 is the resource being processed at the time of the error. P3 is the feedback code from the vartable P2 verb.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Notify your systems administrator.
Reason:
During registration of stack P1 for FTP or Telnet workload monitoring, an attempt to invoke the UNIX HOSTNAME command failed. P2 is the error message returned from the UNIX interface.
System Action:
The failed operation is retried at intervals, if required. While the failure persists, the workload monitoring data for P1 may be incomplete.
User Action:
Notify your systems administrator.
Reason:
The call to the procedure failed because the keyword identified by P1 had an invalid value identified by P2 .
System Action:
The request is rejected.
User Action:
Contact your System Administrator.
Reason:
An internal error occurred because map P1 was not found in the map dataset.
System Action:
The request is rejected.
User Action:
Contact your System Administrator.
Reason:
An internal error occurred. Map P1 experienced the error described by MDORC= P2 and MDOFDBK= P3 .
System Action:
The request is rejected.
User Action:
Contact your System Administrator.
Reason:
The site file loader utility has issued a system command to the operating system for execution but it has not been passed successfuly.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
The request to obtain workload manager information using the IWMSRSRS macro has failed. P1 contains the reason code describing the failure.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Refer to IBM's MVS Workload Management Services manual for a description of the reason code.
Reason:
The request to obtain workload manager information has failed because an invalid parameter was passed.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
Contact Technical Support.
Reason:
The request to obtain workload manager information has failed because this region is not running APF authorized. APF authorization is required to issue workload manager macros.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
No TCP/IP stacks are registered with the Workload Manager.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
No stacks are registered with Workload Manager for the P1 Telnet cluster.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
There are no Telnet clusters registered with WLM for P1. Telnet clusters are registered using the WLMCLUSTERNAME statement.
System Action:
None.
User Action:
If the command was issued against a stack, the Telnet server may be running in its own address space. Issue the command against the ASMON resource for the telnet server. (Your site can define ASMON resources of type TNSERVER for such servers.)
Reason:
The stack or address space selected for the command is inactive.
P1 is the resource class.
P2 is the resource name.
System Action:
The command is rejected.
User Action:
None.
Reason:
The selected stack is not known to the system.
System Action:
The request is rejected.
User Action:
Enter ? in the Stack field to obtain a list of stacks.
List this region's configuration details (/IPTEST), and investigate any errors.
