DSNT438I   WARNING, IRLM LOCK MAXIMUM SPACE = specified-max MB, AVAILABLE SPACE = available-space MB

Explanation

The maximum number of locks allowed for each user could exceed what is available to the IRLM.

specified-max
The estimated maximum amount of space specified as IRLM LOCK MAXIMUM SPACE on panel DSNTIPC.
available-space
The amount of space that is available for IRLM locks. The available space is specified in the MAX STORAGE FOR LOCKS field of the DSNTIPJ installation panel, and is never less than 2 GB.

All threads are not likely to have the maximum number of locks. However, if the specified-max value exceeds the amount of available space by a significant factor, the possibility of abends in the IRLM increases.

System action

The CLIST continues.

User response

Choose one of the following responses:

  • Ensure that you can run with the overcommitment of lock address space.
  • Reduce the values of the MAX USERS, MAX REMOTE ACTIVE, or LOCKS PER USER fields.
  • Increase the value of the MAX STORAGE FOR LOCKS field.
