NAT1200: Unexpected error during execution of SORT statement.

Text
Unexpected error during execution of SORT statement.
Expl.
This is an internal error.
Actn.
Contact Software AG support.

NAT1201: External sort control fields total exceeds 256 bytes.

Text
External sort control fields total exceeds 256 bytes.
Expl.
The external sort used via the SORT statement supports
a maximum of 256 bytes for the sort fields.
Actn.
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.
Expl.
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.
Actn.
Contact your Natural administrator.

NAT1203: External sort cannot be used in this environment.

Text
External sort cannot be used in this environment.
Expl.
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.
Actn.
Use the SORT/NTSORT option EXT=OFF.

NAT1204: External sort module not found.

Text
External sort module not found.
Expl.
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.
Actn.
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.
Expl.
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.
Actn.
Decrease the number of records to be sorted, or the number of
fields per sort record; or enlarge the incore sort work area
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.
Expl.
The internal work space required for a buffer pool sort is full.
Actn.
Increase the NTSORT parameter WRKSIZE.

NAT1207: Sort buffer pool is full.

Text
Sort buffer pool is full.
Expl.
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.
Actn.
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.
Expl.
The buffer pool sort module is not linked to NAT2SORT.
This is an internal error.
Actn.
Contact Software AG support.

NAT1209: Internal error during buffer pool sort.

Text
Internal error during buffer pool sort.
Expl.
Internal control blocks are destroyed.
Actn.
Contact Software AG support.

NAT1210: Sort buffer pool lost during open processing.

Text
Sort buffer pool lost during open processing.
Expl.
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.
Actn.
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.
Expl.
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.
Actn.
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.
Actn.
Contact your Natural administrator.

NAT1213: Sort buffer pool lost during purge processing.

Text
Sort buffer pool lost during purge processing.
Expl.
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.
Actn.
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.
Expl.
The SORT/NTSORT option STORAGE=SD can only be used for the Natural
internal sort if the Natural session is running under Com-plete.
Actn.
Use STORAGE=MAIN or STORAGE=BP.

NAT1220: Multiple active SORTs are not allowed.

Text
Multiple active SORTs are not allowed.
Expl.
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.
Actn.
Correct error in application.

NAT1221: GETMAIN for Natural Workstation Interface buffer failed.

NAT1222: Memory required for statement execution not available.

Text
Memory required for statement execution not available.
Expl.
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.
Actn.
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.
Expl.
At least one of the digits in a numeric field is not a numeric digit
and cannot be processed in a numeric context.
Actn.
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.
