As part of the HP Nonstop community, we do on occasion receive Express Notices from HP. Would it be of benefit if Prognosis alerted your organization on these type of issues that come across from HP? As we thought through this we created a Prognosis Threshold to alert you when your receive these errors. As described in HotStuff 03288, if multiple OSS applications try to simultaneously open a terminal file for the first time within the same CPU, then under certain conditions, applications might fail with error 566 and report EMS event 49. We have a threshold document that you can use IRCMD to initiate. The contents of the threshold are below. Place the contents from the line START to the line END_THRESHOLD into a file called TH03288. Then use IRCMD to start the threshold as follows.
RUN IRCMD TH03288
This will start the threshold called HS03288. If you have any questions, please contact me at jack.vanmeel@ir.com
Thank you
