IXC454I
SIGNALLING CONNECTIVITY CANNOT BE ESTABLISHED FOR SYSTEMS: system-names

Explanation

A system is trying to join a sysplex, but has not established signalling connectivity for the systems listed in the message text.

The problem is one of the following:
  • The definitions for signalling paths to the systems listed are missing from the COUPLExx member.
  • The other side of a signalling path has not been defined to XCF on a listed system.
  • A failure prevented XCF from establishing valid signalling paths using the signalling path definitions in the COUPLExx parmlib member.
  • Not enough time has elapsed for XCF to establish the signalling path.
In the message text:
system-names
A list of systems to which the initializing system has not established signalling connectivity.

System action

If the initializing system does not appear to have enough paths defined to establish signalling connectivity message IXC453I is issued. Message IXC455D is then issued. System initialization stops until the operator responds to message IXC455D.

Operator response

See the operator response for message IXC455D.

System programmer response

Ensure that signalling paths between every pair of systems are defined and operational.
