SYMPTOMS

When you activate and use independent LU6.2 sessions through an IBM 3172 interconnect controller (configured as an external adapter) attached to VTAM version 3.4.2, the LU6.2 session may hang or APPC allocation errors may occur.

SNA Server does not encounter these problems when communicating through an IBM 37x5 front end processor, to VTAM 3.4.2.

RESOLUTION

This problem is solved when you apply IBM PTF #UY97878, which includes an update to VTAM 3.4.2, when VTAM is implementing a boundary function.

Contact IBM to request this update.
