Message
Cannot initialize the getpma structure area.
Explanation
An error occurred while attempting to initialize the structure returned by the tosgetpma() service, which is managed as a GDO. This indicates a bug in PDE initialization logic.
Generated By
PDE Initialization.
For Whom
System Support Representative.
Notes
This event aborts PDE startup, causing an automatic retry. After three failures, PDE stops retrying and remains down. The associated stack trace will help the Global Support Center determine the exact cause of the failure.
Remedy
An operating system shutdown and reboot may clear up the problem. However, this is probably caused by a bug in PDE startup logic, which should be reported to the Global Support Center.
