Error description

  • ISGQUERY is issue during termination of IIDR CDC for z/OS to
    determine if there are other instances in a FailOver
    configuration.  The answer area is sized to receive a response
    for up to 10 other instances, however this size is less than
    4K.  The manual indicates that the answer area should be a
    minimum of 4K.  This error interferes with the proper behaviour
    of a FailOver configuration during an instance shut down or
    loss situation.
