OFFLOAD IS NOT PROGRESSING ON sysname LOGSTREAM: logstream, STRUCTURE: strname CHECK FOR OFFLOAD INHIBITORS WITHIN checksys

Explanation

On system sysname, an offload initiated as part of log stream recovery for log stream logstream on structure strname is not progressing. The offload function involves reading log data from interim storage and writing it to DASD log data sets. Writing data to DASD log data set(s) involves DASD I/O and the potential need to allocate a new or existing log data set.

In the message text:
sysname
is the name of the system on which the system logger address space is not progressing with log stream recovery.
logstream
is the name of the log stream which is in the process of being offloaded.
strname
the name of the structure associated with the log stream.
checksys
identifies the likely system candidate that should be checked or if all systems in the "SYSPLEX" should be checked for inhibitors preventing the log stream recovery on system sysname.

System action

Until this offload completes, system logger on system sysname is unable to process functions such as log stream connect requests, log stream disconnect requests, log stream deletion requests and is unable to process most structure events for all structures to which the system is connected.

The inability of this system to process structure events could result in delays in structure rebuild and the inability of other systems in the sysplex to reconnect to one of the affected structures. The affected structures are any structure to which system sysname is connected.

Once the offload completes, this message will be DOMed.

This message is accompanied by message IXG115A.

Operator response

Check for any conditions in the installation that might be preventing the offload from proceeding.
  1. Check for outstanding WTOs or WTORs.

    Check for any outstanding WTORs or WTOs that are awaiting action that might be preventing system logger from being able to allocate a log data set.

  2. Check for start pendings.

    Check for any start pending conditions against either the offload DASD device or any devices required to allocate/unallocate log data sets such as the catalog device and any device on which a new log data set could be allocated. If start pending conditions are found any of these devices, resolve the condition.

  3. Check for resource contention.

    Issue the DISPLAY GRS,C command to display resource contention. If there is resource contention that is preventing system logger from allocating log data sets. If so, resolve the contention.

  4. Check for recall of migrated log data sets.

    Resolve any recall requests for migrated log data sets.

If none of the above steps resolves the condition, notify the system programmer.
