I have written a VTAM application which is similar to Telnet. It's purpose is 
to 'trap' printouts which were sent
By various VTAM applications to VTAM printers, and save them in a database.

For example, I define the following :

APPLNOM VBUILD TYPE=APPL                                                
  
*                                                                     * 
NOMPRT01 APPL 
AUTH=NVPACE,EAS=1,PARSESS=NO,MODETAB=ISTINCLM,           +
               DLOGMOD=DSC2K,SESSLIM=YES,USSTAB=ISTINCDT       

When my VTAM application is not active and I try to print, I get the following :
          
IST663I INIT OTHER REQUEST FAILED, SENSE=08570003                
IST664I REAL  OLU=SAGNET.DAEFCO       REAL  DLU=SAGNET.NOMPRT01  
IST889I SID = CF237FFB2870626D                                   
IST264I REQUIRED RESOURCE NOMPRT01 NOT ACTIVE                    
IST314I END

This is correct. The problem is that when I start my VTAM application and 
print to NOMPRT01, I get both buffers !
It seems that VTAM saves the first buffer somewhere, and when my 
application starts and does a RECEIVE, it gets
The buffers that were printed (and failed) , and then the next buffer !!!

Can someone explain what is going on ?

Many thanks,
David
