FLASHCOPY OPERATION ERROR. MSG FRMT = f,
MSG NMBR = n, REAS: rs
Explanation
The ESS subsystem detected an internal error while
processing the FlashCopy® request.
The request was not completed.
System action
System programmer response
This is generally an error caused
by existing conditions or states in the subsystem. If the problem
recurs, search problem reporting databases for a fix for the problem.
If no fix exists, contact the IBM® Support
Center. An unformatted GTF I/O trace on the specified device while
the problem recurs will probably be required for further diagnosis.
Note: The
reasons for the internal error can be correctable by the user. The
following list has some of these reasons and a description of the
error and possible corrective actions:
- MSG FRMT = 0, MSG NMBR = F, REAS: 56
- The FlashCopy request
specified a volume that has pinned data. Correct the pinned data situation
and resubmit the FlashCopy request.
- MSG FRMT = 0, MSG NMBR = F, REAS: 60
- The target device for a FlashCopy request
is in a path grouped status. This implies the device is online to
a host system (not necessarily to the host issuing this FlashCopy request). Either ensure that
the target device is offline to all systems or specify the ONLINTGT(YES)
parameter.
- MSG FRMT = 0, MSG NMBR = F, REAS: 82
- The subsystem has insufficient resources or too many FlashCopy relationships to complete this FlashCopy request. Resubmit
the request when the condition is corrected or relieved.
- MSG FRMT = 0, MSG NMBR = F, REAS: 84
- The FlashCopy request
specified devices that are not in the same ESS logical subsystem or
the devices are not the same size and format.
- MSG FRMT = 0, MSG NMBR = F, REAS: BB
- The FlashCopy FCWITHDR
request specified DDSW(YES) for a source device which is in an existing
full-volume FlashCopy relationship.
