Overview¶
This page describes the system messages for the Hercules S/370, ESA/390, and z/Architecture emulator.
Message Format¶
All Hercules-issued messages are of the form HHC*mmnnns* *text* where:
HHCis the message prefix for Hercules. All Hercules messages will have this prefix.mmspecifies the function that issued the message, from the below listnnnSpecific message number, assigned more or less sequentially.sMessage severityS Severe error. Causes immediate termination of Hercules.
E Error. The function being requested did not execute correctly, but Hercules should continue running.
W Warning. Not necessarily an error, but something to take note of and possibly correct.
I Information. General messages that do not require any further action.
A Action. You need to do something.

CA Communication Adapter emulation¶
HHCCA001I¶
HHCCA001I CCUU:Connect out to ipaddr:port failed during initial status : System Cause Text Explanation HERCULES attempted to make an outgoing TCP connection to ipaddr:port, but the system indicated that there was an error while processing the request. System Action The DIAL or ENABLE CCW that caused the connection attempt ends with Unit Check and Intervention Required. The reason for the failure is indicated in the System Cause Text field Operator Action None Programmer Action Correct the RHOST/RPORT configuration statements in the configuration file. If this message occured during a program initiated DIAL, correct the dial data. Module commadpt.c Function commadpt_connout
HHCCA002I¶
HHCCA002I CCUU:Line Communication thread thread id started Explanation The thread responsible for asynchronous operations for the BSC emulated line CCUU has been started. System Action The system continues Operator Action None. This is an informational message Programmer Action None. This is an informational message Module commadpt.c Function commadpt_thread
HHCCA003E¶
HHCCA003E CCUU:Cannot obtain socket for incoming calls : System Cause Text Explanation A system error occured while attempting to create a socket to listen for incoming calls. System Action The device creation is aborted. Operator Action None. Programmer Action Check the System Cause Text for any information relating to the host system. Notify support. Module commadpt.c Function commadpt_thread
HHCCA004W¶
HHCCA004W CCUU:Waiting 5 seconds for port port to become available Explanation While attempting to reserve port port to listen to it, the system indicated the port was already being used. System Action The system waits 5 seconds and then retries the operation Operator Action Terminate the device if the port is in error Programmer Action Determine the program holding the specified port. If the port cannot be made available, use a different port.
HHCCA005I¶
HHCCA005I CCUU:Listening on port port for incoming TCP connections Explanation The system is now listening on port port for incoming a tcp connection. System Action The system continues Operator Action None. This is an informational message Programmer Action None. This is an informational message
HHCCA006T¶
HHCCA006T CCUU:Select failed : System Cause Text Explanation An error occured during a “select” system call. System Action The BSC thread is terminated Operator Action None. Programmer Action Check the System Cause Text for any indication of where the error might come from. Notify Support. HHCCA007W CCUU:Outgoing call failed during ENABLE|DIAL command : System Cause Text Explanation The system reported that a previously initiated TCP connection could not be completed System Action The I/O operation responsible for the TCP outgoing connection is ended with Unit Check and Intervention Required. Operator Action If the error indicates that the error is temporary, retry the operation. Programmer Action Check that the destination for this line is correctly configured. If the operation was a DIAL attempt, check in the application configuration or operation data. HHCCA008I CCUU:cthread - Incoming Call Explanation The BSC thread has received an incoming call. System Action Depending on configuration and operational status, the call is either accepted or rejected. Eventually, an ongoign I/O operation may complete. Operator Action None. This is an informational message Programmer Action None. This is an informational message HHCCA009I CCUU:BSC utility thread terminated Explanation The BSC thread has ended System Action the system continue. Operator Action Refer to any previous error message if this message was not unexpected Programmer Action Refer to any previous error message if this message was not unexpected HHCCA010I CCUU:initialisation not performed Explanation The Device initialisation process has failed. System Action the system terminates or continues, depending on the reason for which the device was initialisation was initiated. Operator Action Refer to any previous error message Programmer Action Refer to any previous error message HHCCA011E CCUU:Error parsing Keyword Explanation The device keyword parser found an error while parsing a known keyword. System Action The system continues. The device initialisation routine turns on a NOGO flag. Operator Action for a runtime initialisation, correct the device initialisation parameters, otherwise notify the programmer. Programmer Action For an engine initialisation, correct the device configuration parameters in the configuration file. HHCCA012E CCUU:Unrecognized parameter Keyword Explanation The device keyword parser found an unknown keyword in the device parameter list. System Action The system continues. The device initialisation routine turns on a NOGO flag. Operator Action for a runtime initialisation, correct the device initialisation parameters, otherwise notify the programmer. Programmer Action For an engine initialisation, correct the device configuration parameters in the configuration file. HHCCA013E CCUU:Incorrect local port|remote port|local host|remote host specification value Explanation The device initialisation routine could not correctly parse a parameter value. System Action The system continues. The device initialisation routine turns on a NOGO flag. Operator Action for a runtime initialisation, correct the device initialisation parameters, otherwise notify the programmer. Programmer Action For an engine initialisation, correct the device configuration parameters in the configuration file. HHCCA014E CCUU:Incorrect switched/dial specification value; defaulting to DIAL=OUT Explanation The device initialisation routine found an incorrect DIAL value. System Action The system continues. The device initialisation routine turns on a NOGO flag. Operator Action for a runtime initialisation, correct the device initialisation parameters, otherwise notify the programmer. Programmer Action For an engine initialisation, correct the device configuration parameters in the configuration file. HHCCA015E CCUU:Missing parameter : DIAL=NO|IN|OUT|INOUT and LPORT|RPORT|LHOST|RHOST not specified Explanation The device initialisation routine found that a mandatory parameter was not provided for a specific DIAL Value. System Action The system continues. The device initialisation routine turns on a NOGO flag.
