SNA Transport Error Messages 

Listed below are the error messages that can occur when SNA Transport
intrinsics are being used.  They are listed in numerical order according
to message number.  SNA Transport, itself, does not display these
messages:  It returns the error number to the SNA service using the
intrinsics, and the service can optionally display the message.  These
messages are not logged; they are written to $STDLIST by the SNA service
only.

SNAERR 2     MESSAGE      Invalid session.  (SNAERR 2)

                          A call was made to an SNA Transport intrinsic
                          with a bad session number.

             CAUSE        An invalid session number was specified in a
                          call to an SNA Transport intrinsic.

             ACTION       Write down the circumstances and call your
                          Hewlett-Packard support contact.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SNAERR 3     MESSAGE      Missing Completer Parameter.  (SNAERR 3)

                          An SNA Transport completion occurred with a
                          missing parameter.

             CAUSE        The SNA completer was activated with an invalid
                          Cstation, Xfercount, or TargetFlag parameter.

                          Transport intrinsic.

             CAUSE        An SNA service passed an out-of-bounds parameter
                          to an SNA Transport intrinsic.

             ACTION       Write down the circumstances and call your
                          Hewlett-Packard support contact.

             CAUSE        The Flag parameter passed to the SNARcv or
                          SNAPreview intrinsic was invalid.

                          been received.

             ACTION       The SNA service should examine the situations in

SNAERR 112   MESSAGE      The target parameter passed to iowait is too
                          small.  (SNAERR 112)

             CAUSE        A target parameter passed in a call to the
                          IOWait intrinsic is too small to receive sense
                          data.  The size of the target parameter is

                          SNASendToSSCP intrinsic completes.

                          native mode (NM), an error occurred when an SNA
                          compatibility mode intrinsic was called.

SNAERR 115   MESSAGE      Couldn't send BIND on a Secondary LU. (SNAERR
                          115)

             CAUSE        When SNAOpenUser was called to open an LU, the
                          LU was opened as a secondary LU. A secondary LU
                          is not capable of issuing a BIND. However, a
                          call was made to SNASendExpedited, to send a
                          BIND. So, an error occurred.

SNAERR 116   MESSAGE      A waited send intrinsic call was aborted by SNA
                          Transport to avoid a deadlock.  (SNAERR 116)

             CAUSE        When user data is sent to the remote system, if
                          the pacing window is not open SNA Transport must
                          place the request in its queue.  If, at the same
                          time, the remote system sends an expedited
                          request (which is not affected by the pacing
                          window), SNA Transport could hang.  To avoid
                          being hung, SNA Transport aborts the previous
                          waited send call and generates this message to
                          warn the user.

             ACTION       The user program should handle this situation.
