CMMVC9892E The command failed because there is not enough FlashCopy® bitmap memory available to create the snapshots.

Explanation

The memory required depends on the size of volumes in the specified volume group. Multiple concurrent snapshots may be required depending on the policy interval and retention period.
Note: If an attempt to expand the size of a volume fails while it is replicated, then that volume can have an internal capacity greater than the provisioned capacity. In this scenario, the internal capacity is used to determine the amount of FlashCopy bitmap memory required. See the lsvdisk command to verify internal_capacity and capacity fields.

User response

Retry the command once memory is available for FlashCopy use.
