DFR3612E CF CONNECTION FAILED. AREA=area_name, STR=str_name.
Explanation
For the return and reason codes of the IXLCONN macro, see the Sysplex Services Reference. When the structure is a multi-area structure, the message is issued by the block-level data-sharing VSO area, which is to be associated with the structure. In this case, return and reason codes are not shown. In the message text:
- area_name
- Area name
- str_name
- Structure name
- ret_code
- Return code for IXLCONN macro
- rsn_code
- Reason code for IXLCONN macro
System action
It depends on CFCONF= parameter whether the recovery is continued when there is a connection failed area. Moreover, it depends on the CFRET= parameter whether the area is registered as unavailable. See JCL requirements for these EXEC parameters.
User response
After the job ends normally, see the DEDB Area Status list. If RCVNEED is shown for the area, run the Database Recovery utility to recover the area. If RETRY is shown for the area, analyze the cause of the problem and remove it. Prepare the Area Recovery Retry Statement and run IMS DEDB Fast Recovery again, if necessary.
