FAILED TO JOIN the APPC/XCF GROUP. IXCJOIN RETURN CODE = xxxxxxxx, REASON CODE = yyyyyyyy.

Explanation

The APPC address space failed to join the Advanced Program-to-Program Communication (APPC)/cross-system coupling facility (XCF) group during initialization processing due to an environment error.

In the message text:
xxxxxxxx
The return code from IXCJOIN (in hexadecimal).
yyyyyyyy
The reason code from IXCJOIN (in hexadecimal).

System action

The system continues processing without APPC.

Operator response

Notify the system programmer. At the request of the system programmer, restart the APPC address space.

System programmer response

The IXCJOIN return and reason codes explain the error. If, for example, the message shows a return code of 4 and a reason code of C, the maximum number of groups already exists.

For the other IXCJOIN return and reason codes, see z/OS MVS Programming: Sysplex Services Reference. When you have corrected the problem, notify the operator to restart the APPC address space.
