THE LIMIT OF maxnum {POLICIES|STRUCTURES|COUPLING FACILITIES|SYSTEM ELEMENTS| RECONFIG ELEMENTS|RESTART ORDER ENTRIES|RESTART GROUPS|ELEMENTS| RESTART METHODS|TARGET SYSTEMS} PER policy_object_group HAS BEEN EXCEEDED IN LINE linenum. data_type IS THE COUPLE DATA SET DATA TYPE TO WHICH THIS LIMIT APPLIES.

Explanation

The specified limit was reached and the system could not complete processing of the control statement on line linenum. In most cases, the limit is set when the couple data set containing the administrative data is formatted.

In the message text:
maxnum
The maximum number of items per unit. This number is defined within the context of the specific item.
POLICIES
The specified limit of policies has been reached.
STRUCTURES
The specified limit of structures has been reached.
COUPLING FACILITIES
The specified limit of coupling facilities has been reached.
SYSTEM ELEMENTS
The specified limit of system elements has been reached.
RECONFIG ELEMENTS
The specified limit of reconfig elements has been reached.
RESTART ORDER ENTRIES
The specified limit of restart order entries has been reached.
RESTART GROUPS
The specified limit of restart group entries has been reached.
ELEMENTS
The specified limit of element entries has been reached.
RESTART METHODS
The specified limit of restart method entries has been reached.
TARGET SYSTEMS
The specified limit of target system entries has been reached.

One of the following:
COUPLE DATA SET DATA TYPE
Refers to the entire set of administrative data within the scope of an XCF couple data set data_type.
PREFERENCE LIST
The limit of coupling facilities that can be specified in a preference list is fixed at 8.
EXCLUSION LIST
The limit of structures that can be specified in an exclusion list is fixed at 8.
POLICY
The limit of the specified policy_object that can be defined within a policy, established by the installation when the couple data set containing the policy data was formatted
ELEMENT
The limit of restart methods that can be defined within an element definition is fixed at 2.
linenum
The line number where the error was detected.
data_type
Couple data set data type to which this limit applies.

System action

The system ignores the control statement and continues processing remaining control statements.

Operator response

Notify the system programmer.

System programmer response

The limit could possibly be increased. Refer to SETTING UP A SYSPLEX for instructions on how to increase the size of the couple data set.
