DSNB308I   csect-name GROUP BUFFER POOL gbpname WAS SUCCESSFULLY ALLOCATED BUT THE ALLOCATED SIZE OF alloc_size IS LESS THAN THE REQUESTED SIZE OF req_size

Explanation

DB2® successfully connected to the group buffer pool and allocated the group buffer pool in a coupling facility. However, the allocated size of the group buffer pool was less than the requested size in the MVS™ CFRM administrative policy because there is not enough space in the preference list facilities. Both alloc_size and req_size are in 4KB blocks.
