Unable to prompt for device name at this time

Indicates that the

call

command would prompt you for a device name, but the necessary

resources are not available. The recommended actions are as follows:

1.

If possible, enter the device name on the command line.

2.

If the device name cannot be entered from the command line (for example, the device
name contains command line delimiters of a space, a comma, a colon, or a tab), the user
can wait for a few minutes and see if any resources become available.

3.

If actions 1 and 2 are ineffective, this may indicate an internal problem in the System,
please inform your service representative of the occurrence.
