PFS RECOVERY COULD NOT COMPLETE FOR PROCESS pid ASID asid. PFSES WHICH MAY HAVE LOST RESOURCES INCLUDE: pfsname pfsname

Explanation

The PFS (Physical File System) could not complete its recovery for a call in progress during user address space end of memory and the results may be unpredictable. Resources or locks may be lost and the PFS may have to be recycled if other users begin to hang up while using it.

In the message text:

pid
The process ID, in decimal, of the process containing the terminating thread.
asid
The address space ID, in hexadecimal, of the address space containing the terminating thread.
pfsname
The name of up to 3 PFSes associated with the tasks hung in EOM.

System action

ABEND EC6 Reason RRETIME (xxxx0585) is issued. An SDUMP is also captured.

Operator response

None.

System programmer response

Contact the IBM support center and provide the SDUMP for problem analysis. Lost locks may result in hangs; use the D GRS,C system command to review resource contention. Use the D OMVS,W system command to determine if any PFS operations are hung in the PFS. For example, the D OMVS,W,A command will display all tasks waiting more than 5 minutes. Refer to the PFS documentation for PFS-specific recovery procedures:
If there are hung users or applications that have operations outstanding in one of the named PFSes, recycle the PFS, recycle OMVS, or reIPL the system. To recycle the PFS:
  • Use the MODIFY OMVS,STOPPFS= system command if the PFS supports it. STOPPFS for zFS will not correct this problem; zFS must be canceled.
  • If the PFS is executing in a colony PFS address space, you can CANCEL the colony. Use the D OMVS,PFS system command to determine if the PFS is executing in a colony.
  • For a Communications Server TCPIP stack, use the STOP <jobname> command. For example, STOP TCPIP.

OMVS can be recycled using the F OMVS,SHUTDOWN and F OMVS,RESTART system commands.

Once the analysis of the impact of the problem is complete, delete this message using the CONTROL C system command.

Programmer response

None.
