MIM0112E

Local system's status has been externally altered; code = code

Reason:

CA MIM is terminating on the local system (abend U0322) because it detected invalid data in its current control file. This problem is caused by one of these conditions:

• This system was freed or removed by issuing a FREE or REMOVE command from another system while CA MIM was still active on this system. Code=3 indicates that a FREE was issued for a system where CA MIM was still active.
• An attempt was made to format the control file the local system is using when CA MIM was started on another system.
• CA MIM was started on another system that has the same system ID as this system.

  Note: CA MIM usually detects this error before it damages the control files, but damage can occur if the local system is stopped or inactive for a long time.

• A hardware or system failure on another system caused a malfunction in RESERVE processing.

Action:

Do one of the following:

• If the system was freed or removed, restart CA MIM on this system.
• If an attempt was made to format the control files this system is using, wait until the control files are formatted before you restart CA MIM on this system.
• If the system ID of this system is the same as the SMF ID of another system, then assign a different ID to one system or override the system ID for the local system when you restart CA MIM.
• If a RESERVE processing malfunction damaged the control files, you need to address the error that caused the malfunction. Then reformat the control files by specifying FORMAT=BOTH on the START command for CA MIM.

  z/VM only: This problem is most likely caused by improper definition of the DASD devices in DMKRIO or HCPRIO.
