IGF970E
VF x NOW OFFLINE. UNRECOVERABLE ERROR DETECTED

Explanation

The machine check handler detected a failure in a vector facility (VF).

In the message text:
x
The VF identifier.

System action

The system takes the failing VF offline, and then continues processing. The system ends any vector work that was running at the time of the failure.
  • If other VFs are in the configuration, the system will dispatch the VF work on a processor with an available VF.
  • If other VFs are not available, the system cannot run the VF work. The system then issues message IRA700I.

Operator response

Enter the DISPLAY M=CPU command to find out if the configuration has other VFs for existing jobs. If the system issues message IRA700I, see its operator response.
