Don't you just love how USS hides its message meanings in esoteric corners?
After you've used BPXMTEXT to get the semi-cryptic textual "explanation" of a reason code (generally for Kernel errors ONLY), you can get a translation of the return code number into its associated name from SYS1.MACLIB(BPXYERNO) To make your life more enjoyable, you must first convert the hexadecimal code in the message into decimal before you can find it in SYS1.MACLIB(BPXYERNO) Cheers, Alan -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Mullen, Patrick Sent: Tuesday, November 09, 2010 11:50 To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Re: Message BPXF135E RETURN CODE 00000079, REASON CODE 055B005C Return code 79 is EINVAL, see: http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/BPXZA8A0/2.0?

Or, in the case of a sysplex, the file system may be already mounted on another system in the sysplex or there may be conflicting BPXPRMxx statements for the root.
