Explanation
An XES process is in a possible hang condition
because the connector did not provide a required response to one or
more events, described by message IXL040E or IXL041E. This message
indicates whether and when the system will take automatic action to
relieve the hang.
In the message text:
- conname
- Name of the connector with one or more overdue responses.
- strname
- The name of the structure with which the affected connector is
associated.
- jobname
- Job name of the connector.
- asid
- Hexadecimal ASID of the connector.
- actiontext
- One of the following:
- SFM POLICY NOT ACTIVE, MANUAL INTERVENTION REQUIRED
- There is no SFM policy active on the local system, so the system
will not take action to remedy the problem. The installation should
immediately investigate and resolve the problem.
- SFM POLICY REQUIRES MANUAL INTERVENTION
- CFSTRHANGTIME(NO) is in effect for the local system (either defaulted
or explicitly specified in the SFM policy), so the system will not
take action to remedy the problem. The installation should immediately
investigate and resolve the problem.
- SYSTEM IS TAKING ACTION
- The system is taking immediate action to remedy the problem, either
because the SFM policy specified CFSTRHANGTIME(0) for the local system
or because an SFM policy change activated a new value of CFSTRHANGTIME
which, when applied to the hang detection time, caused action to be
required at the present time.
- SYSTEM WILL TAKE ACTION AT termdate termtime
- If the outstanding response has not been provided by the date
and time indicated, the system will take action to remedy the problem.
- SYSTEM ACTION UNSUCCESSFUL, MANUAL INTERVENTION REQUIRED
- The system has attempted all forms of automatic action of which
it is capable. The connector response remains outstanding, and the
affected process remains hung. The installation should investigate
and resolve the problem.
- termdate
- The date when the system will take action to resolve the hang
caused by the unresponsive connector (mm/dd/yyyy). The date is in
months (01-12), days (01-31), and year.
- termtime
- The time when the system will take action to resolve the hang
caused by the unresponsive connector (hh:mm:ss). The time is in hours
(00-23), minutes (00-59), and seconds (00-59).
System action
If SFM is in use on the local system and an SFM
policy is active, the system uses the CFSTRHANGTIME specification
from the currently active policy to determine whether and when to
initiate automatic action to resolve the hang.
If the system
is not using SFM, the default behavior is to take no automatic action,
as if CFSTRHANGTIME(NO) is specified.
If the message indicates
that manual intervention is required, the system continues to monitor
the situation.
If the message indicates that the system is
taking action, the system will initiate progressively more aggressive
actions as necessary to resolve the hang. System actions may include
stopping a rebuild, terminating the connector's task or address space,
or partitioning the issuing system. If connector termination is necessary,
the system will initiate a dump. The system will issue message IXL050I
to indicate that action is being taken against the hung connector
to resolve the problem.
If the message indicates that the system
will take action at a specific time, the CFSTRHANGTIME specification
of the SFM policy has been applied to calculate the maximum amount
of time that the connector will be permitted to remain unresponsive.
If the outstanding response has not been provided by the specified
time, the system will then initiate action to resolve the hang. If
automatic action becomes necessary, the system will issue message
IXL050I and may initiate a dump.
