AVZ4277S no new process block dynamic allocation failures due to storage restraints.

Explanation

This message is issued when a change is noted in the number (no) of process block dynamic allocation failures. These failures will be noted when process block dynamic allocation is unable to obtain either private storage within the product address space or common storage within the extended common storage area (ECSA). This is a serious error.

User response

The bypass is to pre-allocate a sufficient number of process blocks during product initialization via the PROCESS parameter. This number can be determined via the product ISPF panel (AVZ Stats) C.4 and the "High water count" value in the "PC routines process blocks" section. Add 2 or 3 to this number, and use it as the initial PROCESS parameter value. For a permanent solution, contact IBM® Software Support.
