We had the same msg under z/VM 5.2 a while back. HW folks were doing some

Check your directory for NICDEFs and your MVSXExx users for error

One of my printers on a VM/ESA 2.2 system has an FCB
name defined that I cannot figure out how to clear.

Hi David,
In the CP Planning and Administration book heading Creating and Modifying

a 3211 printer. You should have a IMG3211 CNTRL file as John indicated.
