APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • CKX216E IXGWRITE Failed, RC=00000008-00000806
    
    This error can be seen when data loss has occurred within the
    logstream that CKXLOG uses, most likely due to a system or
    coupling facility failure.
    

Local fix

  • Offload the LOGSTREAM to a DASD dataset, delete and define the
    logstream.

    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: zSecure Admin Command Logger might      *
    *                      issue a MSGCKX216E.                     *

    ****************************************************************
    When the CKXLOG started task can connect to the logstream, but
    receives a warning condition, later attempts to record commands
    to the logstream, MSGCKX216E are issued starting with the text
    "IXGWRITE Failed, RC=..." and logstream data is lost.
    

Problem conclusion

  • zSecure Admin Command Logger has been modified so that it
    recovers from warning conditions during connection to the
    logstream and performs proper recovery. Please review the
    documentation updates as provided by the APAR tracking comment
    data.
