ISG344I
GRS PROCESSING ERROR xxxx - FAILURE OF A GRS TASK.

Explanation

A global resource serialization task that is not considered critical to global resource processing ended due to an abnormal condition. The task either could not be re-instated or it had reached the limit of re-instatement attempts allowed.

In the message text:
xxxx
is a reason code that indicates the particular task that failed.

System action

Global resource serialization continues to operate with reduced capability. The following table describes the system impact for the reason codes that appear in the message:
Reason Code
System Impact
C8C5
Listeners for GRS's ENF signals (event code 51) will not receive contention data generated by requests on this system for global resources. Contention monitors such as RMF™ will not have access to global contention information generated by requests on this system.

Operator response

Notify your system programmer. To restore full capability, re-IPL the system after collecting the appropriate diagnostic data.

System programmer response

Examine your system log for one or more instances of GRS related failures (for example, SDUMPs) that occurred just prior to this failure. The task probably terminated as a result of these failures. Take a stand-alone dump of the system. Collect the available diagnostic data from these failures and contact the IBM® Support Center.
