VTAM CHANNEL COMMUNICATIONS FAILED. RETURN CODE = return_code VTAM RESOURCE NAME = resourcename, FUNCTION = function

Explanation

Unable to establish a connection with the remote partner. An error was reported by VTAM® during oeifconfig processing, or during data communications between the local entity and its remote partner. If the error occurred during the oeifconfig processing, the system could not configure or activate the connection to the identified VTAM resource.

In the message text:
return_code
The return code from the VTAM function call. Return codes from either the OSA adapter card or VTAM may be listed here. This field contains the OSA adapter return code if the listed FUNCTION call has the "OSA-" prefix. Otherwise it contains the VTAM return code. For more information about the OSA adapter return code, see zEnterprise System and System z10 OSA-Express Customer's Guide and Reference. For more information about the VTAM return code, see the chapter "Data Link Control (DLC) Status Codes" in z/OS Communications Server: SNA Messages.
resourcename
The name of the VTAM resource specified on the oeifconfig command.
function
The VTAM function call being processed at the time of the error.

System action

The identified VTAM resource is not activated. The system processing continues.

Operator response

Contact the system programmer.

System programmer response

Do the following:
  • Verify that the appropriate VTAM TRLE resource definition has been created for the failing VTAM resource.
  • Verify that the CTC channel is online and that the "v net,act,xxx" command has been issued for the CTC channel in use.
  • Verify that the remote partner has been correctly configured.
  • If the problem is an OSA-2 error, correct the error.

After the condition has been rectified, reissue the oeifconfig shell command to activate the VTAM resource.
