3270 session is permanently disabled

When you configure a 3270 session for use by a server but the session always has the status “Disabled”, check the following.

The sample 3270 server provided with Blueworx Voice Response is only a sample. The server can run in virtual mode, but not in real mode. If you try to run this server in real mode, it disables all sessions that are configured to use it. Use the information in Blueworx Voice Response for AIX: Configuring the System to reconfigure the session or reconfigure the 3270 connection as virtual mode. Use the comments that are included at the top of the login_amnu script, which is the SrvrSample_3270 initial login script, to edit the script for virtual mode operation.

When you activate a configuration for a 3270 session, Blueworx Voice Response runs the initial script for the server that is defined to use the session if one has been defined. If there is a problem with the initial script, the system disables the session. Use the information provided in Blueworx Voice Response for AIX: Application Development using State Tables to resolve any problems with the initial script. Use the information provided in Blueworx Voice Response for AIX: Configuring the System to restart the session. If you are sure the initial script runs correctly but you cannot restart the session, recycle Blueworx Voice Response (shut it down and restart it). Use the information provided in Blueworx Voice Response for AIX: Configuring the System to quiesce any active sessions first.
