Afternoon Richard,
Yep, you just confirmed my suspicions. Just had to make sure I wasn't
blindly missing another solution (well documented ANR9999D guide would
be a dream..)
More training for the OPS!
Cheers,
Matthew

Good morning, Matthew -
Your adjective adeptly summarizes the situation: these messages are
unpredictable, being Dignostic messages to provide internals info to
allow TSM Support personnel to pursue a fuzzy situation. Once a cause
can be nailed down per a solid customer event, the situation can either
be resolved and become a footnote in history, or be formalized as a
standard message to describe a reasonable thing which may occur from
time to time. I would not look for a definitive explanation of an
ANR9999D message, then. In writing an Ops guide, I would expect
ANR9999D messages to be referred to the TSM administrator for pursuit,
rather than being handled by an operator, as these messages may indicate
issues which go beyond a simple remediation step, and likely need to be
pursued with the vendor.
