Issue/Introduction

After APPLYing the latest maintenance to our Vantage software and after IPL, we encountered these messages 17 times every 15 minutes.

Messages are being generated in the RMFGAT STC.

There is no impact other than the messages appearing.

 

Environment

Vantage R14.1

Cause

The VPPD0C member was found in the 'user' PARMLIB data set (SYSU.SVM.PARMLIB), but should not be there (this member should only reside in the Vantage SMP/E 'CCTUPARM' data set).

 

Resolution

Delete the VPPD0C from hlq.PARMLIB data set.

Adding the ACBNAME correctly into the VKGPARMS corrected the error.

Additional Information

Changing value of a ACBNAME parameter to SAMSAC08 should be done by changing the value in VKGPAMRS PARMLIB member like this:

ACBNAME (SAMSAC08)

If there is a need to have a shared PARMLIB for multiple Vantage tasks you can have multiple VKGPARMS members for each Vantage task in one PARMLIB dataset. See Configuring Multiple Systems for more information on how to do that.

 

Errors that appear in the SAMS STC include:
VAN0007E VANTAGE SYSTEM PARAMETER XMBUFFSZ IS UNKNOWN
VAN0999E  Error reading XMBUFFSZ parameter, RC=8
VAN0999E  XAM Vantage Receiver Task Stopped 

From the documentation it states in System Parameters-
Warning:
Do not change the values in the members that have a prefix of VPPD.
