to set destination name specified in the
CHNG call.

ISRT

Call attempted with invalid PCB (PCB not

modifiable, or ISRT operation already
done).

Call attempted to a modifiable TP PCB

with no destination set.

Security violation detected during

processing of an AUTH, CHNG, or ISRT call
on a conversational response.

Format name specified on second or

subsequent message ISRT or PURG.
Output segment size limit exceeded on
call.

A7

ISRT

Number of output segments that were

inserted exceeded the limit by one. Any
further queue manager calls are
prohibited to prevent message queue
overflow.

A8

ISRT

A9

ISRT

ISRT to alternate response PCB followed

ISRT to I/O PCB or ISRT to I/O PCB
followed ISRT to alternate response PCB.
Alternate response PCB to referenced by
call requires that the source physical
terminal receive the output response.

TG

AUTH

Terminal symbolic error. Output

designation unknown to IMS (logical
terminals or transaction code).
No PSB was scheduled (command-level
only).

TN

AUTH

Invalid system DIB (command-level only).

TP

AUTH

Invalid number for PCB or invalid

processing option (command-level only).

TY

AUTH

Database not open (command-level only).

TZ

AUTH

Length of segment greater than 64 KB.

XA

ISRT

ISRT

Attempt to continue processing the

conversation by passing SPA by a
program-to-program switch after
answering
terminal.
Program passed SPA to other program but
trying to respond.

XC

ISRT

Program inserted message with Z1 field

bits set. These bits reserved for system
use.

XE

ISRT

Tried to ISRT SPA to express PCB.

XF

ISRT

Alternate PCB specified in ISRT call for

SPA had destination set to a logical
terminal, but was not defined as

ALTRESP=YES. MSC direct routing does

not
support program-to-program switch
between
conversational transactions.
XG

ISRT

Current conversation required

fixed-length SPAs. Attempt was made to
insert SPA to transaction with a
different or nonfixed length SPA.

X2

ISRT
PURG

First insert to transaction code PCB that

is conversational is not a SPA.

X3

ISRT

Invalid SPA.

X4

ISRT

Insert to a transaction code PCB that is

not conversational and the segment is a
SPA.

X5

ISRT

Insert of multiple SPAs to transaction

code PCB.

X6

ISRT

Invalid transaction code name inserted

into SPA.

X7

ISRT

Length of SPA is incorrect (user modified

first 6 bytes).

X8

ISRT

transaction code PCB.
