CNZ4215W THE SYSTEM HAS BEEN STOPPED. MESSAGE `msgid` IS DISPLAYED{ON CONSOLE `console-name` AND IS AWAITING AN OPERATOR REPLY.}{ON THE SYSTEM CONSOLE AND IS AWAITING AN OPERATOR REPLY. THE SYSTEM CONSOLE IS LOCATED ON THE HARDWARE MANAGEMENT CONSOLE)[THE MESSAGE IS BEING MANAGED BY AUTO-REPLY.]

Explanation
When a synchronous WTOR is issued, it will be displayed on an MCS console or the system console.
CNZ4215W will be displayed on all other usable MCS consoles on the system. The message will indicate
the message id of the WTOR awaiting a reply, and the console on which the reply must be entered.

CNZ4215W will indicate if the z/OS® auto-reply function is
managing the WTOR message.

In the message text: msgid
The message id of the synchronous WTOR that is waiting for an operator reply.
console-name
The name of the console where the synchronous WTOR is being displayed.

System action
The system is stopped until a reply is given to the WTOR. In the case where the WTOR was
displayed on an MCS console, if no reply is provided within approximately 125 seconds, then the
display of the WTOR will be moved to another MCS console or the system console (as governed by the
SYNCHDEST group as described in z/OS MVS Planning: Operations). Message CNZ4215W is
replaced by CNZ4216A on the other active MCS consoles indicating the new location of the WTOR.

If Auto-reply is managing the message, the system will provide a reply if one is not provided by
an operator within the time frame defined in the auto-reply policy.

Operator response
Locate the console named in CNZ4215W and give a reply. A reply should be specified as quickly as
possible since the system is stopped until a reply is provided.

System programmer response
If CNZ4215W does not indicate that the WTOR is being managed by auto-reply, consider using the
auto-reply function of z/OS to provide a reply to the message
named in CNZ4215W. This would eliminate the need to involve an operator in finding the named console
and giving a reply.
