Issue/Introduction

LBX01 REQUEST REJECTED DUE TO EXCESSIVE STORAGE REQUIREMENT

How do we resolve the "LBX01 REQUEST REJECTED DUE TO EXCESSIVE STORAGE REQUIREMENT" error condition? This only happens for very large PDS files. Possibly over 3 or 4 thousand entries. 

Environment

Release:
Component: ROSCOE

Resolution

There is not enough storage to display all members of the user library. 

This message is being issued from the LIBEXIT. The distributed LIBEXIT 
is issuing a GETMAIN of 100K for the Attach LIB. 

Recommend: You increase the AM24LIM and AM31LIM values in LIBEXIT and reassemble. 

The LIBEXIT is in RO60OPT library and use MRO607F to reassemble. 

Here is what the exit defaults to: 

AM24LIM DC A(100*1024) BELOW-16MB STORAGE LIMIT (100K) 
AM31LIM DC A(300*1024) ABOVE-16MB STORAGE LMIIT (300K) 

You might try these values as they have worked in the past for some customers:

AM24LIM DC A(200*1024) BELOW-16MB STORAGE LIMIT (100K) 
AM31LIM DC A(800*1024) ABOVE-16MB STORAGE LMIIT (300K)
