Contact BMC for assistance. If you are willing to forego STOPX37
assistance entirely in CONNECT:Direct add this DD to whatever address
space is doing the allocation.
//X37IGN DD DUMMY THIS TURNS OFF STOP X-37
The message is documented as
SVM4000I
TEXT job,step,dd ATTEMPTING action FOR dsn,vol,extent
REASON This is the first message written to the log during a StopX37/II
recovery attempt. The action field describes the type of
recovery
being attempted. The variable fields are
TEXT job - job name, step - step name, dd -
ddname, dsn - data set name, vol - volume, extent - extent count
on
volume.
USER None

Subject: STOPX37 & SMS loop
Has anybody using STOPX37 seen a problem where it gets in a loop
fighting with SMS over an insufficient space condition? Anybody
have suggestions on how to avoid it?
Details:
A process is submitted via CONNECT:Direct (aka NDM) specifying SMS
STORCLAS, MGMTCLAS, and DATACLAS that result in selection of
volumes with too little space for the dataset being transfered.
1. SMS says
IGD17272I VOLUME SELECTION HAS FAILED FOR INSUFFICIENT SPACE
FOR DATASET ...
2. STOPX37 says
SVM4000I ... ATTEMPTING SPACPRIM FOR ...
3. SMS repeats indefinitely
IGD17272I VOLUME SELECTION HAS FAILED FOR INSUFFICIENT SPACE
FOR DATASET ...
Is there some way to cause a hard failure in situations like this?
I don't think CONNECT:Direct is significant in this except that
this request is coming from an outside business partner. We have
absolutely no control over the size of the dataset or SMS parms
specified.
BTW, SMS and STOPX37 are way out of my areas of responsibility
and expertise. I'm going to have to convey any suggestions to
others that don't read IBM-Main. Don't assume comprehension
on my part.
