DFS167 INVALID RESTART FROM CHKPT SPECIFIED. RE-ENTER RESTART COMMAND

Explanation

This message is generated when the operator requests one of the following invalid combinations:
  • Normal warm start from a simple checkpoint
  • BLDQ type restart from a FREEZE or SIMPLE checkpoint
  • Non-BLDQ type restart from a PURGE or DUMPQ checkpoint
  • /ERE command specifying CHKPT 0, but the checkpoint returned by the logger is not a cold start checkpoint.

System action

IMS waits for another RESTART command to be entered.

Operator response

(master terminal) Enter the correct command or enter a cold start. If a cold start is to be done, IMS must be reloaded because the prior restart command might have modified the control blocks. A cold start assumes that the control blocks have not been previously used.
