ICP157I TOO MANY PARTITION NAMES SPECIFIED [FOR CSS x]

Explanation

You specified too many partition names on the RESOURCE statement, an IODEVICE statement, the UUID statement, a FUNCTION statement, or in the access list or the candidate list on a CHPID statement. If CSS x is included in the message, then you specified too many partitions for that CSS. You cannot specify more than 15 partition names in a CSS, and you cannot specify more partition names than your CPC supports. Also, some CPCs support only 10 partitions in the maximum CSS ID supported by the CPC. For additional information or to determine which CPCs support less than 15 partitions in the maximum CSS ID, see Machine limits. You can specify only the maximum number of partitions names that your CPC supports in the following:
  • RESOURCE statement
  • Access list of a CHPID statement
  • Candidate list of a CHPID statement
  • IODEVICE statement
  • UUID statement
  • FUNCTION statement.

System action

For the RESOURCE statement, IOCP ends with a return code of 8. For all other statements, IOCP continues to validate and check the syntax of all other statements. It does not generate an IOCDS and it does not produce configuration reports.
