Error description

  • User has IXB batch job. Certain FM parms are passed in on the
    SYSIN statement. A missing comma caused a few parms to be
    ignored. It was expected that the parms would be picked up from
    default FM options, but the job received these messages:
    
    FMNBE000 E(00024 00024) CYL(10 10)  MGMTCLAS(SHORTERM) )
    FMNBE000 IDC3186I INVALID VOLUME SERIAL SPECIFIED
    FMNIB426 Function terminated
    FMNBE098 Keyword verification discontinued for any subsequent
             command
    

Local fix

  • Adding the missing comma will result in successful execution of
    the job.
