BPXF027I
FILE SYSTEM name MOUNT DELAYED BECAUSE MOUNT POINT mpname CANNOT BE RESOLVED. RETURN CODE = retcode, REASON CODE = reason

Explanation

OMVS was unable to resolve the mount point path name while attempting to mount a file system that was mounted by another system in the sysplex.

The file system that contains the mount point may have become inaccessible because the system that was serving the file system failed and sysplex partition recovery processing could not establish a new file system server. No mounts that have mount points in the inaccessible file system will succeed until the inaccessible file system is recovered.

For example, if the file system is mounted with the Automove=NO option then no attempt is made to recover the file system. Another example is that mount point directory may have been removed if the mount point file system was owned by another system that had not yet processed the mount. In this case, the file system should be unmounted from the owning system, since it will not be accessible.

In the message text:
name
The file system name specified either on a MOUNT statement in the BPXPRMxx parmlib member or on a MOUNT command.
mpname
The mount point path name specified either on a MOUNT statement in the BPXPRMxx parmlib member or on a MOUNT command, or the last 64 characters of it.
retcode
The return code from the file system request.
reason
The reason code from the file system request. For an explanation of the return code and reason code, see z/OS UNIX System Services Messages and Codes.

System action

The mount will be reattempted the next time a mount is processed in the sysplex. At that time, another attempt will be made to resolve the mount point path name and complete the mount.However, if the mount point directory has been removed, the mount will never be successful.

Operator response

Contact the system programmer.

System programmer response

If a file system containing one of the directories in the mount point path name is not mounted, then mount it. If one of those directories has been renamed, then restore the original name, either by again renaming the directory or by creating a symbolic link with the old name. If the mount point directory has been removed, then unmount the file system from the owning system and mount it again on a valid mount point.
