Resolution

1) The TSSPARM0 likely has:

FACILITY(facility_name=DEFACID=*NONE*)

This statement has to be replaced by FACILITY(facility_name=DEFACID(*NONE*)) 

Please note: To remove a DEFACID value, the keyword is *NONE*. To specify or change a DEFACID, it must be enclosed by parenthesis.  

2) The TSSPARM0 likely has:

FACILITY(facility_name=PGM=DFS,ID=xx,TYPE=005)

This statement has to be replaced by FACILITY(facility_name=PGM=DFS,ID=xx,TYPE=IMS) 

Please note: when you specify a facility type for a CICS or IMS facility the facility TYPE must be TYPE=CICS and TYPE=IMS respectively.

3) The TSSPARM0 likely shows:

JES(SSID=JES2,TYPE=JES2,LEVEL=z/OS2.1,VERIFY) 

This statement has to be replaced by JES(SSID=JES2,TYPE=JES2,LEVEL=z/OS 2.1,VERIFY) 

Please note there is space between the word "z/OS and word "2.1".
