z/VM: System Messages and Codes Š CP - z/VM - IBM

not fill up the error log or flood the operator’s console
with messages.
System Action: Normal system operation continues,
but without reporting system recovery errors.
Operator Response: If system recovery errors have
not been too frequent, and you do want to have them
reported to you and recorded in the error log in the
future, enter the SET MODE command, as follows, to
enable reporting of system recovery errors once again:
SET MODE RECORD
HCP9108E UNEXPECTED ERROR. POSSIBLY
CAUSED BY SOFTWARE.
Explanation: A condition that normally produces an
abend has occurred, but it occurred in the
machine-check handler, where an abend cannot be
safely issued. Therefore, system termination is being
initiated directly from the machine-check handler rather
than from the abend processor.
System Action: The system stops. An automatic
software re-IPL will not follow this termination.
Operator Response: Notify your system support
personnel.
HCP9109I System operation continues.
Explanation: The machine check that message
HCP9101I describes, or the check-stop that message
HCP610I describes, has been handled successfully.
System termination was not required.
System Action: System operation continues. If the
error was a check-stop, the failed processor will soon
be varied offline. If the error was a machine check, the
failed processor may or may not be varied offline,
depending on the severity of the error.
Operator Response: None.
HCP9110I Reporting will be suspended
temporarily because machine checks
are occurring too frequently.
Explanation: In the past few minutes, machine checks
have occurred frequently. In order to avoid tying up the
console with error messages, machine-check reporting
is being suspended for a few minutes. Recording these
errors in the error log for CPEREP is also suspended.
The suspension is selective. New types of errors are
still reported and recorded. Also, the suspension is only
temporary. In a few minutes the system returns
(unannounced) to normal operation unless the frequent
errors persist.
System Action: Normal operation of the system
continues, but fewer errors are being reported.
Operator Response: If the problem persists, contact
your system support personnel.
Programmer Response: Contact your IBM Support
Center personnel to diagnose and correct the hardware
problem.
HCP9111I An expanded storage error has
occurred.
Explanation: A machine check occurred in expanded
storage, or, an expanded storage operation returned a
non-zero condition code.
System Action: System operation continues.
Operator Response: This is probably a hardware
error. If you need assistance, contact your IBM
representative.
HCP9150E A(n) {equipment|receiver} check has
occurred because the signalling facility
for processor nn is damaged.
Explanation: A SIGP SENSE showed either an
equipment check or a receiver check. These checks
indicate that the signal has failed. The unresponsive
processor detection function detected this situation.
System Action: The message is repeated every ten
seconds until the condition is corrected or the failing
processor is varied offline.
User Response: None.
Operator Response: Contact your IBM Support
Center personnel to diagnose and correct the hardware
problem.
HCP9151E Processor nn {has stopped|operator is
intervening.}
Explanation: The unresponsive processor detection
function has detected a processor that is unresponsive
because of an OPERATOR INTERVENING or
STOPPED condition.
System Action: The message is repeated every ten
seconds until the condition is corrected.
User Response: None.
Operator Response: Start the processor if the
STOPPED condition is indicated. For OPERATOR
INTERVENING, stop doing whatever is causing the
intervention to be detected.
HCP9152E Processor nn is being varied offline
because it is not responsive.
Explanation: The unresponsive processor detection
function has determined that a processor is
unresponsive.
System Action: The unresponsive processor is varied
offline.
User Response: None.
