I/O REQUEST FOR DEVICE device_number STORAGE CONTROL ssid SESSION session_number HAS TIMED OUT, FUNC= function_code

Explanation

I/O for device device_number on storage control ssid storage control session session_number did not complete in the allotted time. This message can result when a storage control session has a large enough number of updated records in cache that it cannot process a read or a write I/O without affecting the application. If XRC is running in a channel extender environment, this error can indicate that an extended line-outage condition has occurred. The I/O can be a read or a write command, either from primary volumes or to secondary volumes. The reason for the error, by function_code, is as follows:
function_code
Description
1
Creating a storage control session
2

3
Reading tracks during volume synchronization
4
Writing tracks during volume synchronization
5
Reading updated records from a storage control session
6
Writing updated records to a secondary volume
7

9
Retrieving storage control session information
10
Suspending a volume

System action

The operation that is doing the I/O is failed. If the I/O is associated with data movement, XRC can suspend volumes as a result. XQUERY report data fields can also contain asterisks for data that could not be retrieved from the storage control.

System programmer response

Use the DEVSERV command to determine and correct the cause of the delay to XRC I/O operations. If function_code is 8, it can be necessary to use the TERMSESS operation to end storage control session session_number.
