550: MKD failed. Dcbdsn data set dcbdsn_name does not exist.

Explanation

The MKD command was issued to create a new PDS. The SITE DCBDSN was in effect specifying that all new data sets be created with the same characteristics as the data set dcbdsn_name. The server could not find the model data set dcbdsn_name to determine the data set characteristics.

System action

The MKD command is rejected. Control is returned to the client connection for further command processing.

User response

Use the SITE command to either specify a different DCBDSN data set, or to specify the data set characteristics without using the DCBDSN model data set parameter. After changing the appropriate SITE parameters, reissue the MKD command.

System programmer response

None.
