Feedback : We have a KB article out there for this error :
Resolution:
This error is typically caused by using the wrong SVC number being specified in the Adabas link routine. Check the SVC to ensure it is accurate.
If the SVC is accurately specified, then check Job I060, step 8430 (the link of the NDV nucleus) and make sure REUS=RENT is specified to make it reentrant.
YEs, it was nor linked as RENT because I had to change the supplied link to support LE . First section in the NDV parameters says, you need to have LE ON for this thing to work but the default provided by Software AH , does not specify LE.
So, i changed the link of the FRONT end to the following :
SETOPT PARM(REUS=RENT)

NAME NATNUC02(R)
Natural Development Server(NDV) 1.1.1 requires that either a roll server be active or that it rolls to main storage. If the roll server
is not active for the appropriate SUBSID, (Subsystem ID under OS/390) then a NAT9920 Roll server not active. SUBSID=:1: message will be received when the server job starts.
To avoid this, either start a roll server under the same SUBSID the NDV server is using or set the
FRONTEND_OPTIONS to 1 in the NDV Configuration file (NDVCONFG created in step 2 Job I009 ,step 8410). This will use main storage as the roll facility rather than the roll server.

00000000 NDV Error: Natural Security must be installed for Client impersonation
Summary :
I have a clean set of Natural 9 files on the mainframe (FNAT/FUSER) with no Natural Security loaded. Let me go check the NDV startup options again
I am now being forced to install Natural Security in my Natural 9 mainframe files but I do not have 3270 interface that has been activated by default by Software AG.
I can not start the NDV server because I do not have Natural Security installed , so now I have no interface into my Natural 9 system files . Who thought, this was a good idea ? I think, you guys are out of your mind :
a) Installing the Natural Development Server 9.1.1 for z/OS :
STEP 9 : NDV clients must be defined to Natural Security
The default userid STARGATE must be defined to Natural Security on the mainframe.
Question : How am I suppose to do this without a 3270 interface on the mainframe ? Take your time before answering because somebody decided , this was a great idea
I have absolutely no idea where the idea of âno 3270 interfaceâ stems from, all thatâs gone is the â3270â program, data area and map editors.
Natural Security system ? Yes, I did but what is more important is, that I âcreatedâ a Natural background engine for all the Credit Bureaus in South Africa. It allowed for multiple background tasks in CICS ( As in TCBâs )
It allowed all the retailers and banks in South Africa, to do âcredit checkâ transactions without any human intervention and it was all done with Natural back ground engines running Software Agâs Natural.
So, what is so significant about this ? Well , this NDV of Software AG is actually trying to do the same thing but whoever created it , has not been working for Software AG for a long time. Looks like they gave it to a junior C++ programmer that did an assembler course, but never actually wrote Assembler in his life.
Where am I with the Natural 9 distribution tape created by âSoftware AGâ in Dec 2020?
Well I installed NSC911 today and then I tried to use the TSO interface they shipped SAGLIB.NTI827.LOAD to create myself a TSO interface for Natural 9 on the mainframe but it came back and said: You using the wrong version of NATPARMS with NATI827âŚdummie.
Note: I am not giving UP yet because I have an old set of Natural V826 libraries on the machine but YES, I think, I have more chance of getting around some bankrupt Software AG ideas than somebody with a MBA from the University of Phoenix. Just for the record, my son took his University of Phoenix qualification to the local BSU university and he was told, all the credits he received from the University of Phoenix, carries no value in the real world. He still owes the Feds $35,000 for the degree he got from the University of Phoenix. We have to thank Arne Duncan for THAT . ( Just google for that )
Note: Special thanks to Kathy Jackson that wrote me a users guide on how they actually got NDV to work at the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts. Kathy , Software AG owes you BIG time for your commitment to Software AG products.
Just for the record, I have no regrets and am pleased with the knowledge I possess from the courses I took that earned me an MBA (with Technology Management specialty) from the University of Phoenix - Pittsburgh campus from 2002 through 2004. It was a very intense program that required much study and work product in very salient topics one would expect in an MBA program. I wear that badge proudly as do my classmates and study team partners.
I made NDV NON SWAPPABLE yesterday because it was swapping out all the time .
Maybe should be Step 7B in the NDV installation for zOS manual .
Note: Another observation ⌠I would suggest we have an IVP library per product on the distribution tape. Yes, we now have an IVP section in some of the product manuals but if you receive the JCL with the product, it would save a lot of time.
To Toni Petrov : Why I asked which product somebody is using , is because I thought the specific person is subscribed to the wrong product list and should not even be receiving my postings. I am not trying to sell him any other product.
