Chapter 3. Operating NetView FTP V2.2.1 MVS - IBM

Continue to submit the job until one of the following is true:
� The return code or reason code given in the message is nonzero and the
status of the request is W or F.
There was a problem. Analyze the return and reason codes, these are
described in the NetView FTP Messages and Codes manual, and correct the
problem.
A common problem is that one or both servers are not ready.
If the problem was that the session could not be established because the
receiving server had not started until after the sending server tried to establish
a session, wait five minutes. Five minutes after its initial attempt, the sending
server tries again to establish the session.
If this was not the cause of the problem, stop the two servers. How to do this
is described in “Stopping a Server” on page 61. You can then read and
analyze the messages that were written to the file defined to DVGLOG in the
server JCL. After you have corrected the problem, restart the servers. How to
do this is described in “Starting a Server” on page 47.
If the status of the transfer request was:
F Resubmit the job shown in Figure 23 on page 30.
W The request is automatically reprocessed when the servers are restarted.
� The status of the request remains W and the return and reason codes remain
zero for more than two minutes.
Check whether the two servers are still running and, if so, which classes they
serve. Do this by entering F QH,D from the operator console. The system
displays the system status.
If server 01 does not serve class 1, stop server 01 as described in “Stopping a
Server” on page 61, change the startup parameters accordingly, and restart
server 01.
If the server classes are correct, stop both servers and check the messages
that were written to the file defined to DVGLOG in the server JCL. After you
have corrected the problem, restart the servers. How to do this is described in
“Starting a Server” on page 47.
� The status of the request is F, and the return and reason codes are both zero.
The file transfer was carried out successfully.
