Issue/Introduction

Getting message CA-7.V001 04 10 00 10030020 112601 HTERM 16 C CONNECTION FAILURE when starting CA7ONL

  

Environment

CA/7 R12.1
 

Cause

During the CA 7 install the initialization file is created with an example of how to define a ‘hard coded’ VTAM terminal.  The references to HTERM can be deleted from the initialization file if you only use virtual terminals.

Resolution

Change the initialization file from:

GROUP,NAME=VGROUP,DEVICE=3270V,LNAME=(HLINE,VLINE), 
      OPEN=YES,VLOGOFF=PF12                            
LINE,NAME=HLINE,TNAME=HTERM,OPEN=YES                   
TERM,NAME=HTERM,DEVICE=3270V,CONS=MASTR,VTAMID=VTAMTERM
LINE,NAME=VLINE,TNAME=VTM#020,OPEN=YES                 
TERM,NAME=VTM#020,DEVICE=3270V,CONS=ALTRN,SIMLOG=NO     

To:

GROUP,NAME=VGROUP,DEVICE=3270V,LNAME=VLINE,   
      OPEN=YES,VLOGOFF=PF12                            
LINE,NAME=VLINE,TNAME=VTM#020,OPEN=YES                 
TERM,NAME=VTM#020,DEVICE=3270V,CONS=ALTRN,SIMLOG=NO   

And remove the STATIONS statement for HTERM:

STATIONS,TRMID=HTERM,STANIDS=(HTERM1,HTERM2)

After making these changes, a specified ERST type start of CA 7 is required.
