FCXxxx446E Incomplete monitor data: nnnnn too small

Explanation

Data from the CP monitor indicates that the information received is incomplete because either the DCSS is too small or the SAMPLE CONFIG size in the DCSS is too small. (Accordingly, nnnnn will be either 'DCSS' or 'SAMPLE CONFIG'.)

This message is also sent to the maintenance user ID defined with the FC MAINTID command.

System action

Data will be shown as far as possible, but the information is likely to be incomplete. Incorrect data may be shown, and the Performance Toolkit for z/VM could even abend.

User response

Inform the responsible systems programmer that either a larger monitor segment needs to be defined for the CP monitor data, or that the SAMPLE CONFIG area size in the monitor segment needs to be increased. You might also consider disabling some of the monitor domains, users or devices that are not needed, or enabling only the domains, users or devices that are needed. (Refer to the MONITOR SAMPLE command in z/VM: CP Commands and Utilities Reference.)
