KCNCI009E ERROR JOINING XCF GROUP TYPE=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. FUNCTION TERMINATING.

Edit online

Explanation

This message comes from the main module supporting Coupling Facility data collection in the OMEGAMON® Subsystem (KCNCFIN). The Coupling Facility collection function tried to join the XCF group to determine the identity of other group members. A problem occurred while trying to perform this task. The specific condition is given by the text following the TYPE= phrase, where XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX is:
  • QUERY GROUP RC>4: the IXCQUERY for group information ended with a return code greater than 4
  • QUERY GROUP NOT4: the IXCQUERY for group information ended with a return code 4 but the reason code was not also 4. When both return and reason codes are 4, it is just a matter of resizing the answer area. Otherwise, some serious error has occurred.
  • QUERY GROUP LNG< – :the IXCQUERY for group information ended with indication that we should resize. However, the buffer area we used is already big enough for the complete data. This contradiction cannot be resolved.
  • QUERY GROUP REPT: Attempts to resize and get group information have failed repeatedly.
  • XCF JOIN FAILED: The IXCJOIN to join the XCF group failed. Check the group name for valid characters.

System action

None.
