What if it did not work?

If QMF is unable to start, an error message is generated. Descriptions of some of the more common errors from running the IVP follow. If you do not find the message on this list, consult the appropriate Messages and Codes manual.

• AEY9 ABEND The database connection between the CICS partition and DB2 is not active. Issue a CIRB command.
• G050 ABEND The release level of GDDM being used in CICS partition does not match the version with which QMF was link-edited.
• Gxxx ABEND Issued by GDDM. See the GDDM Diagnosis manual and the GDDM Diagnosis and Problem Determination guide.
• DFH1599 Region/partition size is insufficient to initialize CICS. Increase the partition size.
• DSQ40083 GDDM ERROR ADM0962 E MAPGROUP 'DXYKIMD5' not found. SEVERITY 8 FUNCTION MSQGRP.

  The double-byte character set language feature requires a terminal that is also double-byte enabled. Before restarting QMF, ensure your terminal can display double-byte characters. If your terminal is double-byte enabled and you still have the error, check the ICCS Terminal Control Table (TCT) for proper entries.

• DSQ51304 File DSQPNLn not found in CICS. ***CMD=HELP

  The VSAM file that contains QMF screen images is not available. Check the results of DSQ3EINS or DSQ3nINS for NLF. Also, verify teat the panel files were defined in the CICS startup and in the CICS FCT.

• DSQI004I Unable to load module(s) nnnnnnn

  If nnnnnnn = ADMASP, verify that the GDDM product library was available when running the QMF job DSQ3ELNK. If nnnnnnn = ARIPRDI, verify that the DB2 product library was available when running QMF job DSQ3ELNK. Other modules should be available from the QMF product library.

Warning messages: QMF generates warning messages for conditions it detects while starting QMF. Your QMF trace data contains helpful information for analyzing warning messages. For example, the messages might concern the initialization of the QMF governor DSQUEGV3, or the availability of the edit exit phase DSQUECIC.

CEBR DSQD can be used to browse the temporary storage queue for warning messages.
