8112E OPEN FOR ACB acbname FAILED extension

Written to:

Operator console.

Explanation:

The attempt to open the ACB acbname has either failed or has been rejected. acbname shows the last known VTAM application ID of the CAF system. The extension is only displayed when the opening of the ACB acbname has been rejected. The following will be displayed for extension: REASON: REJECTED - CAF NOT OPERATIONAL

System Action:

The CICS interface is terminated.

Operator Response:

When the process fails, the CAF system must be stopped using the CAF command 'B11C SHUTDOWN(IMM)' without resorting to the automatic restart option.

Refer to the IBM VTAM programming manuals to determine the error (the VTAM status of the ACB, the uniqueness of the ACB, and the assignment of the ACB to CAF in B11LSTxx.)

Correct the error and restart the CAF system with 'B11C RESTART(YES)...' Refer to the CAF Installation and System Guide for the command syntax.

When the process has been rejected, also need to figure out the previously displayed console messages.

Note: Be aware that 'BST11OL' or 'BST11OL2' has been defined with 'RESidend=YES' in the CICS PPT.
