Symptoms
The SC SRDF_CMPR command fails with the "EMCCR15E RDF group FF not found" error message if a wildcard character is specified in the srdfgrp parameter.
According to SRDF Host Component Product Guide, SC SRDF_CMPR supports LCL(cuu,*) and RMT(cuu,srdfgrp,*) formats, where * is a wildcard character that represents all SRDF groups:
Syntax:
#SC SRDF_CMPR,LCL{(cuu,srdfgrp)|(cuu,*)},
action[(action-option)]
[,CQNAME=(cqname[,queue-option])]
#SC SRDF_CMPR,RMT{(cuu,hoplist,srdfgrp)|(cuu,hoplist,*)},
action[(action-option)]
[,CQNAME=(cqname[,queue-option])]
The SC SRDF_CMPR does not work with RMT(cuu,srdfgrp,*) format.
Example (Dell EMC CS Lab environment):
EMCMN00I SRDF-HC : (21) W5SC SRDF_CMPR,RMT(7600,78D,*),ACT(HW)
EMCCR15E RDF group FFFF not found (CMD:21)
EMCGM10E COMMAND ABORTED (CMD:21)
EMCGM40I Command has finished for box 000120200246 (CMD:21)
It also fails with the LCL(cuu,*) format as well:
