SYMPTOMS
Consider the following scenario. You define duplicate Remote Advanced Program-to-Program Communications (APPC) logical units (LUs) on multiple connections on an SNA Server service. The SNA Server service is part of a Microsoft Host Integration Server 2006 installation. These logical units resemble the following.

Then, an application that runs on an IBM mainframe or on an IBM iSeries (AS/400) computer tries to initiate an LU 6.2 APPC session over the Remote APPC LU that you have duplicated. In this scenario, the SNA Server service rejects the incoming BIND request by issuing a &quot;BIND – RSP&quot; message that contains IBM sense code 0x0805000. When this problem occurs, an event message that resembles the following is logged in the Application log: Event ID: 17

Source: SNA Server

Description:

APPC session activation failure: BIND negative response sent

Sense data = 08050000

Connection =

Session ID =

LFSID =

Local LU =

Mode Name =

Remote LU =

TH =

RH =

RU =

Event messages that resemble the following may also be logged in the Application log. This behavior may occur when the application that initiates the BIND request from the IBM host computer tries to start an APPC Transaction Program (TP) on a server or on a client computer.

Event message 1

Event ID: 60

Source: SNA Server

Description:

Failed to invoke APPC TP, local LU =  , sense data = 84c0000

Event message 2

Event ID: 730

Source: SNA Base Service

Description:

The Host Integration Server computer was unable to locate an invokable TP, APPC LU Alias  , Workstation name:.



CAUSE
This problem occurs if the fully qualified Remote APPC LU name is the same for multiple Remote APPC LUs that are defined on multiple connections on an SNA Server service. The Remote APPC LU aliases for the Remote APPC LUs do not trigger this problem.
