Explanation

The error occurred during processing of an OPEN macro instruction for QISAM load mode.

The control program found that the space on a direct access device that had been allocated for the index area was either exhausted or occupied more than one volume. The index for an ISAM data set must reside on one volume.

System programmer response

If the error recurs and the program is not in error, look at the messages in the job log for more information. Search problem reporting data bases for a fix for the problem. If no fix exists, contact the IBM® Support Center. Provide the JCL and the program listing for the job.

Programmer response

If a new data set is being created, the job must be restarted with larger space allocation specified in the SPACE parameter of the DD statement.

If an old data set is being updated, the data set should be dumped sequentially, the old data set scratched, and the data set recreated from the sequential data set using QISAM load mode. The job should be restarted with larger space allocation specified in the SPACE parameter of the DD statement.
