DFR3737W Start of changeRECOVERY SKIPPED FOR DB=dbname AREA=area_name. AREA NOT FOUND IN [ACBLIB | IMS CATALOG]End of change

Explanation

IMS DEDB Fast Recovery finds database dbname updates to area area_name, but it cannot validate if these updates need recovery (REDO). There is no subsequent X'5926' log record nor the X'5927' log record to show that the area has been deleted by online change. This condition occurs if the user has changed the IMS block structure since the specified checkpoint was taken.

System action

The job continues, and ends with return code 4 or higher.

User response

Make sure that there is no data integrity problem that is caused by the user by changing the IMS block structure since the specified checkpoint was taken. If the area has been closed before the IMS failure, there will be no date integrity problem.
