SNALU Path Errors

This category indicates that the request could not be delivered to the intended receiver,

due to a path outage or an invalid sequence of activation requests. Table B-7 lists

SNALU path error codes. The RU sense codes are described in detail in the IBM

Systems Network Architecture: Network Product Formats manual.

Table B-7. SNALU Path Errors

Hex Value Description

8001 INTERMEDIATE NODE FAILURE. A machine or program check occurred in

an intermediate node, and the request was discarded.

8002 LINK FAILURE. A data link failure occurred.

8003 NAU INOPERATIVE. The NAU is unable to process requests or responses. It

might, for example, have been disrupted by an abnormal termination.

8005 NO SESSION. No half-session is active in the receiving end node (does not

apply to BIND request).

8008 PU NOT ACTIVE in receiving node.

8009 LU NOT ACTIVE in receiving node.

8010 SEGMENTED RU LENGTH ERROR. An RU was found to exceed a

maximum length or buffer allocation that might cause future buffer depletion.

800A PIU TOO LONG. The transmission was truncated by the receiving link station

because sufficient buffering was not available.

800C DCF ERROR. The specified data count field was inconsistent with the

transmission length.

800D LOST CONTACT. Contact with the link station for which the transmission was

intended has been lost, but the link has not failed.
