Debug Messages

Since SA z/OS ProcOps addresses a hardware deficiency specific to a single machine type set, the messages informing about this RAS and problem determination support are written only to the netlog.

The following message variables are used:

cmd

Hardware command allowing a CLEAR STORAGE operation (ACTIVATE, DEACTIVATE, SYSRESET, and LOAD)

dtmo1

ISQCCMD default timeout in seconds notation

ACTIVATE=600

DEACTIVATE=300

SYSRESET=60

LOAD=60

dtmo2

ISQCCMD timeout in M(m) notation

ACTIVATE=M(10)

DEACTIVATE=M(5)

SYSRESET=M(1)

LOAD=M(1)

mtype

Machine type number, 2964 or 2965

thw

ProcOps target hardware name from SA policy

tmo

User specified timeout in hh:mm:ss notation

The following ProcOps debug messages might be issued:

ISQ511I OA52002 Possible elongated CLEAR STORAGE period on thw, machine type mtype.

Explanation: Message issued at ISQSTART or ISQXIII time, when the CPC's machine type is determined. This helps to determine if subsequent timeout issues for this target hardware might be related to the known hardware deficiency.

ISQ511I OA52002 Default or ISQ.SNMP.WAIT period tmo used on thw for command cmd.

Explanation: This message is issued when a hardware command with a possible CLEAR STORAGE option is executed, but no Z13TMO override has been specified for this 2964/2965 type target hardware.

ISQ511I OA52002 User defined z13 special timeout period tmo used for command cmd.

Explanation: This message is issued when a Z13TMO user timeout value has been specified for a hardware command that allows a CLEAR STORAGE.

ISQ511I User timeout value exceeds z API maximum. Defaults dtmo1 and dtmo2 are used on thw for command cmd.

Explanation: This message is issued when a Z13TMO user timeout value or a ISQ.SNMP.WAIT timeout value was specified that exceeds the supported System z API maximum timeout of 596 hours. The ProcOps default timeout values are used.
