About the Event Descriptions
The ZSCP event descriptions are listed in order by event number. Use the tables on the
preceding pages to find the event number that corresponds to a particular name or
message text. Each description includes:
•
The meaning of the event
•
A list of tokens that appear in the event (other than standard event-message tokens,
which are described in the SPI Common Extensions Manual and the EMS Manual)
•
The event message text (with numbers in angle brackets: for example <2>, showing
where information from listed tokens is inserted in the text)
•
Descriptions of any listed tokens
•
The probable cause of the event
•
Possible effects of the event
•
Recommended recovery actions
1 ZSCP-EVT-SHUT-SIGNALTIMEOUT-ER
An SCP call to the Guardian SIGNALTIMEOUT procedure failed. (An SCP process
calls SIGNALTIMEOUT when it is preparing to stop.)
Cause. An SCP call to the SIGNALTIMEOUT procedure failed. An SCP process calls
SIGNALTIMEOUT before stopping so unexecuted commands can be processed. The
SCP process passes the length of the delay, and the SIGNALTIMEOUT procedure then
initiates the delay.
The procedure can fail due to a shortage of time-list elements (TLEs). TLEs are system
resources configured during system generation. The system allocates one TLE for each
call to a timeout procedure. If all configured TLEs are allocated, a procedure call
requiring a TLE fails.
Effect. The SCP process issues this message, stops its backup process if there is one,
and calls the ABEND or PROCESS_STOP_ procedure. The file system returns error
201 (nonexistent process) to every application that is awaiting a response from the SCP
process. The process that created the SCP process receives system message –101,
indicating process abnormal deletion.
Recovery. Direct command messages to another SCP process, or hold them until
another SCP process is started. For more information on SIGNALTIMEOUT errors, see
the Guardian Procedure Errors and Messages Manual.
