SYSTEM NON-DISPATCHABILITY INDICATOR [IS OFF | WAS ON, IS NOW BEING RESET] [WRITE-TO-OPERATOR BUFFER LIMIT EXCEEDED. ISSUE K M,MLIM COMMAND TO RAISE LIMIT] [NO BATCH JOBS OR TIME SHARING USERS FOUND RECOMMEND YOU DISPLAY ACTIVE AND DISPLAY QUEUES]

Explanation

The operator caused a restart interruption, specifying REASON 1. This message displays the results of the diagnostics that the system performs in response to the restart interruption.

In the message text:
SYSTEM NON-DISPATCHABILITY INDICATOR [IS OFF | WAS ON, IS NOW BEING RESET]
If the non-dispatchability indicator is on, the system sets it off and marks all address spaces as dispatchable.
[WRITE-TO-OPERATOR BUFFER LIMIT EXCEEDED. ISSUE K M,MLIM COMMAND TO RAISE LIMIT]
The write to operator (WTO) message buffer is full.
[NO BATCH JOBS OR TIME SHARING USERS FOUND | RECOMMEND YOU DISPLAY ACTIVE AND DISPLAY QUEUES]
The system found no batch jobs or time sharing users. However, there can be started tasks in the system.

System action

The system issues message IEE125A. The system waits for the operator to reply to message IEE125A. Then the system begins restart processing.

Operator response

Reply to message IEE125A. Depending on the message text, one of the following:
[WRITE-TO-OPERATOR BUFFER LIMIT EXCEEDED. ISSUE K M,MLIM COMMAND TO RAISE LIMIT]
Enter the CONTROL M,REF command to display the limit. Enter the CONTROL M,MLIM=nnnn command to raise the limit.
[NO BATCH JOBS OR TIME SHARING USERS FOUND | RECOMMEND YOU DISPLAY ACTIVE AND DISPLAY QUEUES]
Enter the DISPLAY ACTIVE and/or the DISPLAY QUEUE command to determine if the system is holding a job queue.

When this message is issued, IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT to respond promptly. This message is issued as a synchronous WTOR, which will prevent the system from updating its status on the sysplex couple data set. This, in turn, could lead to Sysplex Failure Management (SFM) deciding that the system is not responding normally, and removing it from the sysplex.
