SYMPTOMS
A connection using a Channel adapter, although configured for a format 0 XID, generates an XID indicating format 3.
CAUSE
The first byte of the XID generated specifies format 3.
RESOLUTION
Apply the update referenced below. An update to the SNA Server Administrator program corrects the format of the connection entry to properly indicate Format 0 for channel connections.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server versions 2.1, 2.11, and 2.11 Service Pack 1 (SP1). A supported fix is now available, but has not been fully regression-tested and should be applied only to systems experiencing this specific problem. Unless you are severely impacted by this specific problem, Microsoft recommends that you wait for the next Service Pack that contains this fix.
