2192 (0890) (RC2192): MQRC_STORAGE_MEDIUM_FULL

Explanation

An MQI call or command was issued to operate on an object, but the call failed because the external storage medium is full. One of the following applies:
  • A page-set data set is full (nonshared queues only).
  • A coupling-facility structure is full (shared queues only).
  • The SMDS was full.
You can get this reason code when the page set or SMDS were expanding, but the space was not yet available. Check the messages in the job log to see the status of any expansion.

This reason code occurs only on z/OS®.

Completion Code

MQCC_FAILED

Programmer response

Check which queues contain messages and look for applications that might be filling the queues unintentionally. Be aware that the queue that has caused the page set or coupling-facility structure to become full is not necessarily the queue referenced by the MQI call that returned MQRC_STORAGE_MEDIUM_FULL.

Check that all of the usual server applications are operating correctly and processing the messages on the queues.

If the applications and servers are operating correctly, increase the number of server applications to cope with the message load, or request the system programmer to increase the size of the page-set data sets.
