APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
If the VIOS adapter reaches a total of 511 logins which would be the total of all mapped VIOC using that same adapter, Targets may failed to configure with config manager and may return ENOMEM. This might be seen when adding a high number of tape drives, since tape drives are considered a target. The initial list of tape drives would configure but some tape drives near the end of the list may fail to configure. The key to experiencing this problem is the max number of logins from any specific FC adapter will be limited to 511 which would likely be seen in a tape drive environment.
Local fix
Configure less than 511 targets / tape drives for any specific physical adapter on the VIOS.
Problem summary
Failure to configure more than 512 targets per adapter
Problem conclusion
Changed code to handle more targets.
Temporary fix
