IXC427A
SYSTEM sysname HAS NOT UPDATED STATUS SINCE hh:mm:ss BUT IS SENDING XCF SIGNALS. XCF SYSPLEX FAILURE MANAGEMENT WILL REMOVE sysname IF NO SIGNALS ARE RECEIVED WITHIN A interval SECOND INTERVAL

Explanation

The Sysplex Failure Management policy specifies that system sysname should be removed from the sysplex when its status update is missing. System sysname has not updated its system status for as long as its failure detection interval. However, system sysname has produced signal traffic within its failure detection interval. The system is functional but cannot write its system status. This can be a temporary event or system sysname is not functioning properly. XCF message IXC426D prompts the operator to optionally remove the system.

In the message text:
sysname
The name of the system whose status is missing.
hh:mm:ss
The last time system wrote its system status. The time is in hours (00-23), minutes (00-59), and seconds (00-59).
interval
The system failure detection interval in seconds. This interval is the time XCF lets elapse without a status update before assuming that the system is status update missing.

System action

Processing continues. System sysname will be automatically removed from the sysplex if it does not update its status and it does not produce XCF signal traffic within its failure detection interval. At a minimum, XCF will attempt to send a signalling status message at least once a second. The operator can use message IXC426D to manually remove system sysname. See IXC426D for more information.

Operator response

See message IXC426D.

System programmer response

Frequent occurrences of message IXC427A might indicate contention of poor performance of the sysplex couple data sets. You need to investigate the performance problem.
