FSUM2137I
No session was started. Too many processes are already active in the system.Function = sigprocmask,
return value = return-value-hex,
return code = return-code,
reason code = reason-code

Explanation

The OMVS command was entered when the maximum number of processes was already running. The new process required for the OMVS command could not start.

In the message text:
return-value-hex
The return value from sigprocmask.
return-code
The return code, in hexadecimal, from sigprocmask.
reason-code
The reason code returned from sigprocmask; if this value is zero, there is no reason code available for this error.

System action

The OMVS command ends and returns to TSO/E without starting a shell session.

System programmer response

If required, increase the maximum number of processes allowed for z/OS UNIX. This number is specified in the parmlib member for z/OS UNIX. For information about configuring z/OS UNIX, see z/OS UNIX System Services Planning.

To see other suggested actions for the displayed reason code and return code, refer to z/OS UNIX System Services Programming: Assembler Callable Services Reference.

User response

Retry the OMVS command later, when the system is not as busy.

Ask the system programmer to increase the maximum number processes that can be active at one time.
