Re: APAR OA58438 (was Re: Planned ESQA change and HealthCheck)
Thanks Mark for the heads up. We've not seen the behavior noted in this APAR, although I am tracking it now for closure. In my case, got lazy over the years and hadn’t been paying attention to CSA/ECSA SQA/ESQA allocation and utilization that has crept up. ESQA has been hovering around 80-85% on my heavily used lpars. We've had one production system spill from ESQA to ECSA since our last IPL in early May. Since we've got our fall IPL's coming up, I'm adjusting it to get it back into a more comfortable range. _ Dave Jousma AVP | Manager, Systems Engineering Fifth Third Bank | 1830 East Paris Ave, SE | MD RSCB2H | Grand Rapids, MI 49546 616.653.8429 | fax: 616.653.2717 -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List On Behalf Of Mark Zelden Sent: Thursday, October 3, 2019 5:19 PM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: APAR OA58438 (was Re: Planned ESQA change and HealthCheck) **CAUTION EXTERNAL EMAIL** **DO NOT open attachments or click on links from unknown senders or unexpected emails** If you are running z/OS 2.3 and increasing ESQA because of expansion into ECSA messages or sudden unexplained growth, check out APAR OA58438.

Re: Planned ESQA change and HealthCheck
The choices (most mentioned by one or more posts) for the current IPL are among delete the check (usually a bad choice) deactivating the check changing the check parameters changing the frequency at which the check runs (many checks support something like this, I did not try to see if the check in question does) acknowledging that you have seen the exception so that subsequent checks are based on that acknowledged state rather than the state from the previous IPL, precisely to avoid reporting on situations that you are aware of starting a new "persistent data" data set (highly discouraged -- that history can be valuable just not for the OP's specific case) And re-IPL will base its new reporting on the previous IPL (which in this case will be the larger size).

Re: Planned ESQA change and HealthCheck
Thanks RS. We write the data to logstream, so that's not an option. Per IBM, I did a dynamic update to the HC, bumping the ABOVE parameter to something greater than our planned change, and refreshed the check. It will revert to standard check after the follow IPL, at which time it should not trigger again.
