Issue/Introduction

A list of common codes and the way to resolve them.

Environment

XCOM™ Data Transport® for z/OS

Resolution

Here are some common codes:

0835 0001
This can be caused by using the wrong logmode. Specify DLOGMOD=XCOM in the XCOM config member

0835 0017
This VTAM sense code indicates a parallel session mismatch on the two sides. The SNA Parallel Session configuration should match on both sides. Both sides should be defined as parallel sessions with the same winners and losers.

0835 0018
You generally get this particular sense code when you use type=execute with parallel sessions. This VTAM code indicates parallel session mismatch. Use type=schedule with parallel sessions.

0835 004B
This sense code frequently indicates an invalid netname. Check the netname specified in the XCOM config member against the VTAM APPL definitions.
