“ACCESS <vaddr> <fm>“ failed RC=<rc>

Reason

The CMS ACCESS command for an SMF disk failed.

<vaddr>

The virtual device address of the SMF disk

<fm>

The filemode

<rc>

The return code from ACCESS.

Action

This is a warning message. No user response is required. Initialization of the SMF files continues, bypassing the SMF disk that denied the access. If at least two SMF disks are successfully initialized, SMF recording will be done on the remaining SMF disks. Through the access return code, determine why the disk cannot be accessed. After the problem is corrected, restart the CA ACF2 for z/VM service machine to reinitialize the disk for SMF recording.
