Issue/Introduction

When shipping a package to another LPAR, the transmission is successful.  The problem happens when the attempt to write the shipped Endevor Libraries is made.  It fails and the messages are not helpful at all.  It just gives a RC=8, RN=8 from Direct Connect.

This is a new setup for Connect Direct with package ship. 

Getting messages in the JES log like these indicating that Connect Direct could not read or write to a dataset.

Resolution

This may be a Connect Direct parm error. In the above case the PNODE and the SNODE values were be incorrect. Change the Connect Direct parm error in the Endevor Skels.
