There is an old error in GRS, which has still not been resolved (even at z/OS 2.3) that causes this problem, when you receive it, it's all timing related, and the slower the LPAR (i.e. the more you cap it) the more likely you are to receive it. If you take a SA dump, it's easy to see that

Hey Roger - People here want to be able to change the printer definitions (ie. The ip address) using the GUI. From the manual (p. 339 from the infoprint manual, Chapter 8, Customizing Infoprint Central. aop1c010) it appears that definitions are not supported and testing appears to confirm

I seem to recall a similar problem which caught us out. The cause was the number of inactive EMCS consoles. During NIP processing, it allocates storage to hold all the EMCS consoles defined to the sysplex. This may just tip you over the edge in terms of SQA/CSA and explains why it may not be a
