Resolution

The abend occurs because the target workstation specified does not exist; however, unless the job is executed in debug mode there

is not indicator or message displayed to notify the user that the workstation does not exist.  

The program, PRMCLNB, accepts 3 input parameters as follows.  Set the debug parameter to Y and resubmit the job.

//PARMFILE DD *                            

*              1. THE FROM WORKSTATION NAME

 

 FROM    ;                               

*              2. THE TO WORKSTATION NAME  

 

   TO      ;                               

   Y ; 3.  DEBUG FLAG Y = YES, N = NO      

/*                  

In the SYSPRINT of the job submitted with debug you will find the following error at the very bottom

-

REASON='TO                              

MSG_QUAL='WKS';         MSG_ID=             3; 

-

This is a Repository message that means that the 'TO' workstation does not exist.        

Define the 'TO' workstation and then resubmit the job with the debug flag set back to N.
