Lizette thanks for the info on the LOGREC parms. I will rerun and have a look at the additional details. The connection is along our private fibre. We are using a Ciena CN2000 device at each end. The line is SONET and the connection from the mainframe to the DASD is FICON.

Do you have a physical cable issue? Do you have a physical channel connection issue? How is it connected? Ficon, escon, Cicso routers? Any hardware from point a to point b needs to be looked at. I will usually run LOGREC with the following control cards. Verbose but I can get an idea of what kind of flags are set. ZERO=N PRINT=AL TYPE=CDEHIMOS DATE=(07288,07288) TIME=(0400,0500) ACC=N ENDPARM The IOS050I is stating you have a hardware error. The only way to fix it is to correct the issue. I would look at the logrec and see what flags are set ... Do you have any of the following details in your logrec?
