CMSG—message switching
N=4. An error (most likely caused by TS) occurred
on a DFHBMS TYPE=PAGEOUT request.
CLEAR/CANCL or cont input|route|msg
An operator on a 3270 family display device pressed the
CLEAR key and the message states continue (CONT):
INPUT
The last option in the previous input is complete.
Enter an option to continue.
ROUTE
The last option in the previous input is ROUTE and
a closing parenthesis cannot be found. Continue
entering ROUTE destinations.
MSG
The last option in the previous input is MSG, and a
single quotation mark to end the message cannot
be found, or a single quotation mark is found as the
last character of the input, and might be the first of
a pair of single quotation marks. If the previous
input does not end with a single quotation mark,
continue entering the message. If the previous input
ends with a single quotation mark, enter another
single quotation mark to continue the message
(which causes a single quotation mark to be
included), or enter any option that causes the
message to be considered complete.
Note: If the operator replies by again pressing the
CLEAR key (two consecutive times) it has
the same effect as entering CANCEL for the
last 6 characters of the input.
CONTINUE INPUT
A SEND option has not been processed, and a ROUTE
or MSG option was not being continued. Continue by
entering any option.
CONTINUE INPUT OR MSG
The previous input ended with a single quotation mark
with the MSG option being processed. This single
quotation mark could specify the end of the MSG option
or could be the first character of a pair of single
quotation marks (signifying that a single quotation mark
was to be included within the message).
If the next input starts with a single quotation mark, the
message is continued with a single quotation mark
included in the message. A nonpaired single quotation
mark is required to end the MSG option.
If the next input starts with any character other than a
single quotation mark, it is treated as the beginning of a
new option and the MSG option is considered complete.
CONTINUE MSG
The previous input ended with the MSG option being
processed, but no single quotation mark ended the
entered text. Continue the message.
CONTINUE ROUTE OPERAND
The ROUTE option was being processed in the previous
input and a space or an EOD was found. Continue the
ROUTE option.
DATE ALREADY PASSED
A delivery date before the current day is invalid.
DATE INVALID AT xxxxxxxx
DATE must be in one of the following forms:
yy.ddd year ( –99) and day ( 1–366)
mm/dd month ( 1–12) and day ( 1–31)
mm/dd/yy month ( 1–12), day ( 1–31),
and year ( –99)
D=+d day ( –4)
DATE NOT xx/xx at xxxxx
DATE must start with 2 digits followed by a slash (for
month), or a period (for year). This message is issued if
the third character of DATE is not a slash or a period.
Notes:
1. September 5, for example, must be specified as
09/05 and not as 9/5.
2. The date must be valid, not 06/31 for example.
DATE TOO FAR IN FUTURE
Future delivery may not be specified after 0359 hours on
the fourth day from the current day. The error is either:
1. D=
+
n, where n is greater than 4, or
2. DATE specified explicitly as being after the fourth
day from the current day, or
3. A condition of DATE and TIME that exceeds the
stated limit.
If conditions 1 or 2 occur, the DATE option is not in
effect (the D status indicator is not present). If condition
3 occurs, both the DATE and TIME options are currently
in effect (the D and T status indicators precede the
message), and one or both of them must be changed to
a valid delivery time or the error occurs again.
ERRTERM INVALID AT xxxxx
An ERRTERM must be 1–4 characters.
ERRTERM INVLD/UNSUPP xxxx
A terminal identifier specified for the ERRTERM option
does not have an entry specified in the CICS terminal
definition, or it is for a terminal type not supported by
BMS, and is therefore invalid. Valid replies by the
operator to this are:
1. A terminal identifier or ORIG in the same format as
a normal ERRTERM destination (without entering
the option ERRTERM or E). The message is routed
following this input unless the new ERRTERM
specified is invalid. In this case, the message is
repeated.
2. A space as the first character (followed by an EOB
or comments). This causes the entire ERRTERM
