IEA405E   WTO BUFFER SHORTAGE - 80% FULL

Explanation

The number of write to operator (WTO) messages is 80% of the limit value specified in the MLIM parameter of a CONSOLxx parmlib member.

System action

Processing continues. Consoles that are currently in HOLD mode and have messages waiting are taken out of HOLD mode. The system will no longer hold messages for other systems in the sysplex. If another system is experiencing a WTO buffer shortage, this system will resume sending messages to the constrained system. The system issues a D C,B command and a D EMCS,ST=B,L=Z command.

Operator response

Enter the DISPLAY CONSOLES command. If the console has accumulated a large number of WTO messages, do one or more of the following:
  • Enter the CONTROL Q command to purge the messages.
  • Enter the CONTROL S command to delete a specified number of messages.
  • Enter the CONTROL M,MLIM command to increase the value of the WTO buffer limit.
  • Put the display console in roll mode to let a specified number of messages roll off the screen at a specified time interval.
  • Respond to any messages requesting an operator action.

System programmer response

Before the next system initialization, increase the value of MLIM in the CONSOLxx parmlib member to increase the maximum number of buffers that WTO messages can use.
