STOPPING State overriding End of Memory (EOM) condition setting INACTIVE

Products

• SOLVE:Operations Automation

Issue/Introduction

Experienced an issue around EOM condition and standard event messages (IEF404I and $HASP395) that traditionally use to set a resource to INACTIVE. The end of memory condition triggered before the IEF404I trap. This caused the resource to go from INACTIVE to STOPPING.

What was observed:

1. Request to stop
2. EOM condition (we set it to INACTIVE)
3. Resource stops with IEF404I (we set it to STOPPING)
4. Final Actual State = STOPPING

 

This left the resource in STOPPING and delayed the shutdown. This occurred during a SHUTFORCE.

Example of Log Message:

23.37.53.72 BG-SYS   N1A1BSYS RMLO0099 (STC:NETMIX) 4 000249 $RMSTMS  RMSTMS44 ACTUAL STATE CHANGED FROM <ACTIVE> TO <INACTIVE> BY
