ADR299E

Explanation
DFSMSdss detected
that either the size of the volume in the VTOC does not match the
size of the volume in the VTOC index, or a seek in the high cylinder
of the volume (as indicated in the VTOC) failed. The seek failure
means that the volume is smaller than indicated in the VTOC. The sizes
are represented in decimal and include both primary and alternate
cylinders. A zero value indicates that the size was not available.
(For example, if the volume does not contain a VTOC index, the size
from the VTOC index will be zero.)

System action
The volume is not processed. Data sets which reside
on this volume will not be processed. Processing continues with any
other volumes or data sets. The return code is 8.

Operator response
None.

Programmer response
Determine the proper size of the device,
correct the problem, and rerun the job. If the size of the volume
in the VTOC or VTOC index or both is incorrect, you can use ICKDSF
REFORMAT REFVTOC to correct the problem. Additionally, you might need
to refresh the operating system's internal control structure for the
device using the following DEVSERV operator command: DEVSERV QDASD,device_number,1,VALIDATE
 where device_number is
the device number. If these actions do not resolve the problem, search
problem reporting databases for a fix for the problem. If no fix exists,
contact the IBM® Support Center
for programming support.
