Level: 1
CAUSE: During the termination process a resource was
not released with a good disposition.
ACTION: None; this is not a severe problem since MPE forces
cleanup upon process termination.
MESSAGE: INVALID STATUS FOUND.
Level: 2
CAUSE: Conflicting states existed in the VT status mask.
The transition to a new state could not be made.
ACTION: See Appendix A "Submitting a CR"
of this manual.
MESSAGE: ILLEGAL STATUS STATE.
Level: 3
CAUSE: A VT routine requested an illegal option for altering
the current state.
ACTION: See Appendix A "Submitting a CR"
of this manual.
MESSAGE: VTS MESSAGE DOES NOT INCLUDE PARAMETERS.
Level: 4
CAUSE: The VTS protocol message has no request parameters. This
may be an error in the data transmission or a mismatch in versions of the
VT software.
ACTION: Verify the VT versions on the different nodes, retry the
VT session, and/or see Appendix A "Submitting a CR"
of this manual.
MESSAGE: VTS MESSAGE CONTAINS AN INVALID PARAMETER.
Level: 5
CAUSE: The VTS protocol message contains an invalid request. This
may be a transmission error or a result of incompatible versions of VT.
ACTION: Check the VT version numbers using NMMAINT, retry the VT
session. If the problem recurs, see Appendix A
"Submitting a CR" of this manual.
MESSAGE: VTS MESSAGE HAS INVALID FORMAT.
Level: 6
CAUSE: The VTS protocol message could not be decoded; the format
was not recognized. This results from incompatible versions of the software
or an uncorrected transmission error.
