or

   primary_rc = 0007 (AP_DEALLOC_ABEND_SVC)
				

or

   primary_rc = 0008 (AP_DEALLOC_ABEND_TIMER)
				

The conversation has been deallocated for one of the following reasons:

• the partner TP issued MC_DEALLOCATE with an ABEND type.
• the partner TP has failed abnormally, causing the partner LU to send an MC_DEALLOCATE request.
• the SNA client software's LAN session to the SNA Server was lost, causing APPC to return this error to the local TP.

Check the Windows NT application event log for an error. If Event 38 is logged with a qualifier of 0005, then the client-server LAN session may have been lost.

0x47 (EHNAPPC_INSUFFICIENTMEMORY)
