CX10XDQY CX10XDRC

warning - timeouts detected

Due to timeout situations, CX10XDQY or CX10XDRC could not return all the requested information.

Request a smaller amount of information about one CALL of the API service.

8

31

CX10XDRC

warning - no such record

One or more requested SMF records were not available for CX10XDRC. Either the SMF record data was overwritten by the wraparound management of the data buffer, or it never existed.

Make sure that the elapsed time is not too large between CALLs to CX10XDQY and CX10XDRC, and that a valid token list is passed to CX10XDRC.

70

CX10XDQY CX10XDRC

warning - answer area too small

The answer area provided by the calling program was too small for the service to return all the requested information. The variable answer_area_length contains the length of the answer area provided for this CX10XDQY or CX10XDRC request.

Provide an answer area large enough to contain all of the requested information.

CX10XDQY CX10XDRC CX10XDGS CX10XDRS

error - system(s) inactive

None of the systems specified for the CX10XDQY, CX10XDGS, or CX10XDRS services were active in the sysplex. For CX10XDRC, none of the record tokens specified belong to SMF records collected on systems that are currently active in the sysplex.

Check the system ID list (smf_system_id_list, for CX10XDQY), record token list (smf_record_token_list, for CX10XDRC), or the system ID (system_id, for CX10XDGS and CX10XDRS) parameter and rerun the program.

BMC supports CX10XDRS/ERB3XDRS calls for Db2 z/OS metrics and SDSF - Job Delay information with the installation of the following APARs:

  • for Db2:

    PK62116: USE RMF-API FOR ADDING Z/OS CPU AND MEMORY METRICS TO IFI REC. 1
    PK66373: RMF-DATA REDUCTION EXIT RELATED TO DB2 IFCID1 ENHANCEMENT
  • for BMC MainView Infrastructure:
