#### NAT1200: Unexpected error during execution of SORT statement.

    Text
    Unexpected error during execution of SORT statement.
    Explanation
    This is an internal error.
    Action
    Contact technical support.

#### NAT1201: External sort control fields total exceeds 256 bytes.

    Text
    External sort control fields total exceeds 256 bytes.
    Explanation
    The external sort used via the SORT statement supports
    a maximum of 256 bytes for the sort fields.
    Action
    Reduce the number or length of sort fields specified in the SORT
    statement.

#### NAT1202: Error in external sort; core/disk space insufficient.

    Text
    Error in external sort; core/disk space insufficient.
    Explanation
    For the external sort function, either a system sort program is
    invoked (in batch mode) or an incore sort is invoked (in online
    mode).
    In batch mode, the reason for the error message is either insufficient
    disk space or a missing DD card.
    In online mode, the reason for the message is insufficient memory in
    the file buffer which is used for intermediate storage in the sort
    process.
    Action
    Contact your Natural administrator.

#### NAT1203: External sort cannot be used in this environment.

    Text
    External sort cannot be used in this environment.
    Explanation
    The SORT/NTSORT option EXT=ON has been specified, but the requested
    external sort cannot be used for the execution of the Natural SORT
    statement in the current environment.
    An external sort can only be used if Natural is running in a batch-
    oriented environment (batch mode, TSO, VM/CMS, TIAM).
    If Natural is running in a TP environment (Com-plete, CICS, IMS TM,
    UTM) or as an NDV server, the Natural internal sort has to be used.
    Action
    Use the SORT/NTSORT option EXT=OFF.

#### NAT1204: External sort module not found.

    Text
    External sort module not found.
    Explanation
    The system sort program to be used for the external sort function
    could not be found in any of the libraries defined for the Natural
    run.
    Action
    Check if the NTSORT parameter EXTNAME contains a valid name for the
    sort program and that the load libraries defined for the Natural run
    contain that module.

#### NAT1205: No more sort work space.

    Text
    No more sort work space.
    Explanation
    There is no more space in the core; or the work files cannot
    be accessed, are full, or cannot be supported; or the record
    size is greater than the maximum buffer size.
    Action
    Decrease the number of records to be sorted, or the number of
    fields per sort record; or enlarge the incore sort work area with
    parameter SORT=(WRKSIZE=xxx) or sort work files (if present).

#### NAT1206: No more internal work space for buffer pool sort.

    Text
    No more internal work space for buffer pool sort.
    Explanation
    The internal work space required for a buffer pool sort is full.
    Action
    Increase the NTSORT parameter WRKSIZE.

#### NAT1207: Sort buffer pool is full.

    Text
    Sort buffer pool is full.
    Explanation
    The sort buffer pool used as a temporary storage for intermediate
    results during the sort function is full.
    The problem may also be caused by too many parallel sort runs.
    Action
    Increase the size of the sort buffer pool or decrease the number of
    parallel sorts.

#### NAT1208: The buffer pool sort module could not be found.

    Text
    The buffer pool sort module could not be found.
    Explanation
    The buffer pool sort module is not linked to NAT2SORT.
    This is an internal error.
    Action
    Contact technical support.

#### NAT1209: Internal error during buffer pool sort.

    Text
    Internal error during buffer pool sort.
    Explanation
    Internal control blocks are destroyed.
    Action
    Contact technical support.

#### NAT1210: Sort buffer pool lost during open processing.

    Text
    Sort buffer pool lost during open processing.
    Explanation
    The sort buffer pool is lost during execution of the sort function.
    Possible reasons:
    - The sort buffer pool was shut down while sort was active.
    - The Natural session was switched to another address space and
      no global sort buffer pool was used.
    - The Natural session was switched to another operating system
      image (SYSPLEX only). This is not supported.
    Action
    Ensure that the same sort buffer pool is available to the Natural
    session while a sort function is active.

#### NAT1211: Sort buffer pool lost during read/write processing.

    Text
    Sort buffer pool lost during read/write processing.
    Explanation
    The sort buffer pool is lost during execution of the sort function.
    Possible reasons:
    - The sort buffer pool was shut down while sort was active.
    - The Natural session was switched to another address space and
      no global sort buffer pool was used.
    - The Natural session was switched to another operating system
      image (SYSPLEX only). This is not supported.
    Action
    Ensure that the same sort buffer pool is available to the Natural
    session while a sort function is active.

#### NAT1212: Internal error - no more space in quicksort work area.

    Text
    Internal error - no more space in quicksort work area.
    Action
    Contact your Natural administrator.

#### NAT1213: Sort buffer pool lost during purge processing.

    Text
    Sort buffer pool lost during purge processing.
    Explanation
    The sort buffer pool is lost during execution of the sort function.
    Possible reasons:
    - The sort buffer pool was shut down while sort was active.
    - The Natural session was switched to another address space and
      no global sort buffer was used.
    - The Natural session was switched to another operating system
      image (SYSPLEX only). This is not supported.
    Action
    Ensure that the same sort buffer pool is available to the Natural
    session while a sort function is active.

#### NAT1214: SORT/NTSORT option STORAGE=SD only allowed under Com-plete.

    Text
    SORT/NTSORT option STORAGE=SD only allowed under Com-plete.
    Explanation
    The SORT/NTSORT option STORAGE=SD can only be used for the Natural
    internal sort if the Natural session is running under Com-plete.
    Action
    Use STORAGE=MAIN or STORAGE=BP.

#### NAT1220: Multiple active SORTs are not allowed.

    Text
    Multiple active SORTs are not allowed.
    Explanation
    No more than one SORT loop may be active at a time. This error occurs
    if within an active processing loop initiated with a SORT statement
    another program, subprogram or subroutine is invoked, and within this
    invoked object another SORT statement is executed.
    Action
    Correct error in application.

#### NAT1222: Memory required for statement execution not available.

    Text
    Memory required for statement execution not available.
    Explanation
    The memory required to execute the statement is not available.
    Possible reasons are:
    - The amount of memory allocated to a dynamic variable or an X-array had
      to be increased, but this caused the total memory available to the
      Natural session to be exceeded.
    - The amount of work memory required to execute the statement caused
      the total memory available to the Natural session to be exceeded.
    - Natural environment constraints (e.g. the settings of profile
      parameters) limit the total amount of memory available to the Natural
      session.
    - Operating or TP system restrictions (e.g. the total memory available)
      limit the amount of memory that is available to the Natural session.
    Action
    Use the system command LASTMSG * to find out what exactly caused the
    memory request to fail.
    Check program and correct error, or contact your Natural administrator.

#### NAT1223: A numeric field contains a non-numeric digit.

    Text
    A numeric field contains a non-numeric digit.
    Explanation
    At least one of the digits in a numeric field is not a numeric digit
    and cannot be processed in a numeric context.
    Action
    Check if the numeric field in question is redefined as alphanumeric or
    binary. If so, make sure it contains only numeric digits.
    Otherwise, input data (from the database) could be erroneous.
