3032 Feature license limit exceeded.

Action

• Determine which feature license limit has been exceeded. This might be:

• Virtualization feature - event identifier 009172
• FlashCopy feature - event identifier 009173
• Global and Metro Mirror feature - event identifier 009174

• Ensure that the feature capacity that is reported by the cluster has been set to match either the licensed size, or if the license applies to more than one cluster, to the portion of the license that is allocated to this cluster.
• Decide whether to increase the feature capacity or to reduce the space that is being used by this feature.
• To increase the feature capacity, contact your IBM sales representative and arrange an increased license capacity. Change the license settings for the cluster to set the new licensed capacity. Alternatively, if the license applies to more than one cluster modify how the licensed capacity is apportioned between the clusters. Update every cluster so that the sum of the license capacity for all of the clusters does not exceed the licensed capacity for the location.
• To reduce the amount of disk space that is virtualized, delete some of the managed disks or image mode VDisks. The used virtualization size is the sum of the capacities of all of the managed disks and image mode disks.
• To reduce the FlashCopy capacity delete some FlashCopy mappings. The used FlashCopy size is the sum of all of the VDisks that are the source VDisk of a FlashCopy mapping.
• To reduce Global and Metro Mirror capacity delete some Global Mirror or Metro Mirror relationships. The used Global and Metro Mirror size is the sum of the capacities of all of the VDisks that are in a Metro Mirror or Global Mirror relationship; both master and auxiliary VDisks are counted.
• The error will automatically be fixed when the licensed capacity is greater than the capacity that is being used.
