TDP1159 DEVICE devnum: SYSTEM ALLOCATION FAILED, ERROR(n), REASON X'xxxxxxxx' (n)
Explanation:
An attempt to allocate the indicated CP device was rejected by the operating system. The decimal error number is the return code from the operating system service. The reason, displayed in hexadecimal and decimal, is the error-code dependent reason code from the operating system service. A TDP1160 message follows, that may contain additional information. For MVS, the error code is the return code from the DYNALLOC system service. Return code 8 indicates that an installation exit rejected the request. The reason code is the error code dependent reason code from the DYNALLOC system service. The return and reason codes are defined in the IBM z/OS Programming Authorized Assembler Services Guide, SA22-7608 in the 'Interpreting DYNALLOC return codes' section.
