Error description

  • A data movement process can fail with:
    
    ANR9999D_1487689131 ssReconstruct(ssrecons.c:678)
     Thread<170>: Space not preallocated in pool XX.
    .
    ANR1156W Move data process terminated for volume XYZ -
      internal server error detected.~
    
    when switching between aggregated (reconstructed) and
    non-aggregated (copied) objects going to different storage pools
    under the same transaction.
    
    This is a different issue than what previous APARS IC97229  and
    IC92336 corrected.
    
    Example:
    
    Storage pool hierarchy is as such:
    
    DISKPOOL1(45) maxsize: 512KB -> DISKPOOL2(40) maxsize: 1GB ->
    DISKPOOL3(46)
    
    Allocating space fails for a non-aggregate in storage pool
    DISKPOOL2(40) with rc=3001 for a large file due to maxsize:
    
    14:21:36.337 [170][afmove.c][7191][MoveBatch]:Processing bitfile
    6843998738.
    14:21:36.337
    [170][pvrclass.c][7741][pvrTestSetRclmTypInDevcl]:Device class
    CLASS, snaplockClass 1, reclamationType 0
    14:21:36.337 [170][aftxn.c][979][AfAllocBitfileEx]:Entry from
    afcreate.c(1315)
    14:21:36.337 [170][afcreate.c][2291][AfAllocSpace]:return code
    3001 from ssAlloc or ssSWAlloc for Ck1=1833 Ck2=1 pool 40
    14:21:36.337 [170][afcreate.c][1341][AfCopy]:AfAllocSpace
    returned rc=3001 for destPoolId=40, ck1=1833, ck2=1, alloc
    mode=2, size=1453860694.
    
    So it retries storing the file in the DISKPOOL3(46) pool.
    
    14:21:36.339 [170][asalloc.c][2680][AsReserveSpace]:Reserving
    space in storage pool 46.
    
    Here is the next file which is an aggregate being stored in
    DISKPOOL2(40).
    
    14:22:37.271 [170][afmove.c][7191][MoveBatch]:Processing bitfile

    14:22:37.289 [170][asalloc.c][2680][AsReserveSpace]:Reserving
    space in storage pool 40.
    
    Which fails because the pool got switched from the last file and
    now there is stale pool information:
    
    14:22:37.301 [170][asalloc.c][2816][AsReserveSpace]:Storage pool
    40 is not collocated.

Local fix

  • Specifying 'reconstruct=no' on data movement commands will avoid
     this issue unless deduplication is involved.
    or
    Issue "move data", such that it moves data to the last pool in
    the maxsize storage pool setting hierarchy.
