Make diagnosing IXC440E easier.

when IXC440E message is received the documentation IXC440E - IBM Documentation is complicated. There are multiple displays required to capture required data:
Issue DISPLAY XCF commands to get more information about the stalled group members.

  • Use DISPLAY XCF,GROUP to determine which groups have stalled or isolated members on the system. Message IXC331I lists the names of the groups and indicates which ones have stalled or isolated members.
  • Use DISPLAY XCF,GROUP,grp_name to determine which members of group grp_name are stalled or isolated. Message IXC332I lists the names of the members and indicates which ones are considered stalled or isolated by XCF.
  • Use DISPLAY XCF,GROUP,grp_name,member_name to get detailed information about the member member_name of group grp_name. Message IXC333I provides status information about the member and indicates what work appears to be stalled or isolated.

Seems like system should be able to determine the groups being impacted and could be included in the IXC440E message.

When system wide issue is happening having an Engineer spend time looking up messages to get the proper command formats to get the data is painful.
