KOBCM0042E Wait for periodic refresh failed. rc =return_code + extended diagnostics error and context

Explanation

An attempt to wait for the configured time period between discovery refresh cycles has failed.
Note: This is an extremely unlikely error condition. Basically, it indicates that normal timer services within the LPAR have failed, so the configured registry refresh time period cannot be honored.

System action

To prevent looping, the discovery refresh thread suspends periodic refresh and waits for an operator reply to message KOBCM0043I.

User response

Try replying GO to the associated KOBCM0043I write to operator with reply (WTOR) message found in the LPAR's SYSLOG. If another KOBCM0043I WTOR appears immediately, then call IBM Software Support.
