SUMMARY
COMTI (COM Transaction Integrator for CICS and IMS) logs Event 102 messages to report various exceptions that may occur during COMTI transactions.
Exception 1434 is reported when a COMTI timeout expires.
The following example shows the type of information that is included in an Event 102 message when such a timeout occurs:
Event Type: Error Event ID: 102 Source: COMTI Category: General Date: date Time: time User: user Computer: computer name Description: (102) COM Transaction Integrator reported the following exception to the client: Component: COMTI component Method: COMTI Method Exception description: (1434) The time out period for the method elapsed and no reply was received. Condition code = 00000000. If 0, timeout was normal. If not 0, it represents an error (GetLastError) encountered while waiting.
The Event 102 does not include the Remote APPC LU (Logical Unit) name or the name of the host TP (Transaction Program) being when COMTI is using LU 6.2.
Note The specific COMTI exception that occurs is detailed in the Exception description portion of the message.
This article discusses fixes for both SNA Server 4.0 and for Host Integration Server 2000.
MORE INFORMATION
You may find it useful to know the Remote LU name and the host Transaction Program (TP) name for troubleshooting purposes in COMTI environments that use LU 6.2. An update is available that adds this additional information to Event 102 messages that are logged by COMTI when using LU 6.2.
The timeout that is referenced in the Event 102, Exception 1434 event message is configurable in the COMTI Remote Environment (RE) properties within COMTI Manager. By default, the timeout for COMTI method calls is infinite.
