COF542E   DLF STOP ACTIVE (mode MODE). OBJECT CONNECTIONS EXIST.

Explanation

During data lookaside facility (DLF) processing, the system received the request to stop DLF. DLF processing will end when the system detects that no DLF object connections exist.

In the message text:
mode
The mode in which the stop request is active.

System action

DLF will check periodically whether object connections still exist. When they do not, it will end normally and the action message will be removed from the screen.

When the stop is active in DRAIN mode, no new DLF objects will be created. When the stop is active in QUIESCE mode, no new DLF object connections will be permitted, even if the object already exists.

Operator response

If you have changed your mind about wanting to stop DLF for any reason, you can reverse the stop process by entering the MODIFY DLF,MODE=NORMAL command. You may also switch from DRAIN to QUIESCE mode or vice-versa by entering the MODIFY DLF,MODE={DRAIN|QUIESCE} command.

If the message remains on the screen for a long time, you can enter the DISPLAY DLF,RES=(SYSZSDO,*) command to determine what DLF objects are still connected and potentially take some action regarding specific jobs or to delete retained DLF objects (objects being held by DLF for expected future reconnection).
