Recovering from errors on event data sets

If an event data set (EQQEVDS or EQQHTTP0), an input event data set (EQQTWSIN), or an output event data set (EQQTWSOU) has been damaged, follow this procedure:

1. Stop any IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS subsystem that is writing to or reading from the data set.
2. Rename the event data set, and allocate a new data set.
3. Start IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS again.
   Note:

   The first time IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS is started with a newly allocated event data set, an SD37 error occurs when IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS formats the data set. Expect this; do not treat it as an error.
4. Enter the Modify Current® Plan dialog, and check the status of operations in the current plan. Concentrate on automatically reporting workstations whose events were written to the damaged event data set. If any discrepancies are found, set the correct status for the operation. It is unlikely that you will have lost any events.
