RSM0052 - Not enough storage for IARV64 GETSTOR - Increase MEMLIMIT

Explanation Not enough memory in Memory Objects could be allocated to hold the Local Roll Buffer(s). The allocatable amount is controlled by the MEMLIMIT parameter of the JCL EXEC statement and SMF exit IEFUSI.

RSM0063 - Coupling Facility will not be used

Explanation The second parameter specified 0 for the number of roll files, yet the fifth parameter specified a CF structure. To enable Natural to run on several MVS images in a Parallel Sysplex, the Roll Server needs to use roll files. Operation continues without roll files, but the Roll Server will not communicate with other Roll Servers in other MVS images.
Action Specify roll files in a Parallel Sysplex, or do not specify a CF structure name with zero roll files.

RSM0064 - High/low water marks ignored

Explanation The second parameter specified 0 for the number of roll files, yet low or high watermarks were also specified. With no roll files, low and high watermark are meaningless. Operation continues.
Action Do not specify watermarks with zero roll files.

RSM0065 - XES Event exit received unexpected event type: nn

Explanation The exit for the connection to the CF structure received an event type that it cannot handle. nn is the number corresponding to the event type.
Action Contact Software AG Support.

RSM0066 - REBUILD Start: CF structure temporarily unavailable

Explanation Operator command SETXCF START,REBUILD… was issued for the Coupling Facility Structure that holds the Roll File Directory. Roll Server operation is quiesced until the Rebuild operation is complete.

RSM0067 - REBUILD End: CF structure available again

Explanation Operator command SETXCF START,REBUILD… was issued for the Coupling Facility Structure that holds the Roll File Directory. Rebuild is now complete and the Roll Server resumes normal operation.
Action None.

RSM0068 - LRB slot size parameter ignored

Explanation When running with roll files, the roll file slot size determines the LRB slot size.
Action Specify this parameter only when running without roll file.

RSM0069 - Invalid non-activity time

Explanation The eighth start-up parameter (or TIMEOUT NAT command) is not numeric or greater than 10000000.

Explanation The routine to detect and delete non-active sessions is running.
Action None.

RSM0073 - Scheduled/Operator timeout processing deleted n sessions

Operator timeout processing was requested by the operator command TIMEOUT NOW while scheduled timeout processing was run according to the parameter settings.
Action None.

RSM0074 - Timeout processing ended with return code rc

Explanation The routine to detect and delete non-active sessions has ended with return code rc. In case of return code 12, rc takes the form rc/rsn, where rsn is the reason code.
Action Check in Return Codes and Reason Codes of the Roll Server Requests for an explanation of the return and reason code, and action to be taken.

RSM0075 - TIMEOUT ON/NOW rejected: No valid timeout parameters

Explanation No valid non-activity time and/or no valid timeout-check-time has been specified before this command was issued.
Action For TIMEOUT ON, either specify non-activity time and timeout-check-time as start-up parameters, or precede the command with TIMEOUT NAT and TIMEOUT TOC commands. For TIMEOUT NOW, either specify non-activity time as start-up parameter or precede the command with TIMEOUT NAT.

RSM0076 - Timeout processing disabled

Explanation Timeout processing was disabled by a TIMEOUT OFF command.
Action None.

RSM0077 - REPEAT, TERSE, TOC, VERBOSE, or ?

Explanation The TIMEOUT operator command was issued with an invalid sub-parameter.

Action Reactivate the Roll Server with the operator command START, or terminate the Roll Server and restart it.

RSM0084 - Low water mark cannot be above high water mark

Explanation The low water mark must be below the high water mark.
Action Correct the PARM string of the JCL EXEC statement, or the low water/high water values in the parameter file.

RSM0085 - Module NATCMP83 not linked: roll compression disabled

Explanation Thread compression and decompression will be done by the Natural nucleus during roll out and roll in, respectively.

RSM0086 - Roll compression will run on zIIP

Explanation The Roll Server has determined that the system includes one or more IBM System z Integrated Information Processors (zIIPs). Compression tasks will run as SRBs and be scheduled to run on the zIIP.
