Bad dynamic LUs will not be reused until all good dynamic LUs associated with the IP listening point are in use.
Recommended Action Examine the system services control point (SSCP) host VTAM console for status of the specified PU and LU. Review the VTAM console log output for relevant events (such as deactivation of the PU or LU). If, after VTAM console review, the cause is still unknown, report this error to your technical support representative. A temporary workaround is simply to recycle the affected LU at the VTAM console. This will put the LU back into normal circulation.
