IT39007: EXPORT PERFORMANCE DATA ACTION FAILED

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Export Performance Data action failed for a storage device.  The
  failures occur most often with larger storage devices, such as
  ones with large numbers of volumes.  In this case, the working
  export for 2 hours had over 279,000 rows in the mdisk csv.  The
  rest of the csv files were much smaller.
  
  To work around this:
  - Export for a shorter period of time (such as 2 hours)
  
  - Export for a period of time 12 hours or longer without
  choosing the advanced option to include volume data
  
  
  ...Unexpected end of ZLIB input stream
  tcks error Error uploading performance data export to COS for
  system <...> on tenant <...>. Return code 0 null
