Error description
-
Messages arriving from the Tape Manager TMTMM catalog machine may be lost on the TMCMM command exit machine when the sub-command exec SUBCMM is called from the customer command exit exec EUMCMD. The failure occurs when messages from the TMTMM machine arrive at the TMCMM machine after a sub-command has been issued and before the sub-command completes, which is normally a very narrow window. A command timeout error can occur on the TMTMM machine when a command sent to the TMCMM machine is lost due to the error. The failure may be masked if the CMDEXIT settings permit the execution of a command when a command exit timeout occurs. Note that this condition does not affect customers that execute the EUMCMD exec within the TMTMM machine since sub-commands cannot be executed from the EUMCMD command exit in that case.
Local fix
-
The CMDEXIT settings can be set to allow the execution of commands that timeout after being sent to the command exit service machine. Consideration should be given to operational and security considerations before taking this approach as it will essentially bypass the command exit processing for any command that times out.
