sysid SHUTDOWN denied; no eligible MASTER available

Reason:

A SHUTDOWN has been issued for the only eligible CTC or XCF master system with one of the following SHUTDOWN parameters: DUMP, FREE, LOCAL, or RESERVE. If a SHUTDOWN of the master system is permitted when there is no eligible master system available, but non-master systems are still active, the non-master systems are left in a wait state until the master system is restarted.

Action:

Issue a MIGRATE command to force migration to a new master system or DASD control file (if running CTCDASD). Once migration has completed, reissue the SHUTDOWN command, using the original parameter you specified.

If this is a situation where CA MIM must be taken down, and the state of the non-master systems is no longer important, you can issue the SHUTDOWN FORCE command. This leaves any active non-master systems in a wait state until the master system returns, and may result in an integrity exposure until the time the master is running again.
