FAILURE DURING THE XCF JOIN BECAUSE THE MAXIMUM NUMBER OF XCF GROUPS ARE ACTIVE, GROUP xcfgroup MEMBER xcfmember

Explanation

JES member xcfmember attempted to join XCF group xcfgroup. The attempt failed because the maximum number of groups defined to the sysplex has already been attained. The maximum number of groups is specified on the MAXGROUP parameter of the DEFINEDS statement in the JCL for the XCF couple data set format utility.

In the message text:
xcfgroup
XCF group to which the member belongs
xcfmember
XCF member attempting to join the group

System action

The JES member terminates.

Operator response

Notify your system programmer.

System programmer response

Format the XCF couple data set with a sufficient maximum value to include all XCF groups in your sysplex. Refer to z/OS MVS Setting Up a Sysplex for information on how to specify the MAXGROUP parameter on the DEFINEDS statement.
