ARC0242I
INVALID BACKVOL COMMAND, {BACKUP | DUMP} OF {MIGRATION | BACKUP | DUMP | TAPE | VOLUME volser} NOT ALLOWED

Explanation

This message was issued for one of the following reasons:
  • The BACKVOL command was issued without the DUMP parameter for a volume defined as a migration, backup, or dump volume.
  • The BACKVOL command was issued with the DUMP parameter for a tape volume or a dump volume.

System action

Processing of the BACKVOL command continues for any other volumes specified. DFSMShsm processing continues.

Programmer response

Check the volume serial number of the volume to be backed up or dumped. If the volume is a migration or backup volume and not tape, issue the command with the DUMP parameter. If backup (not dump) is desired, be sure the specified volume is a primary or user (level 0) volume. If corrective action is taken, retry the operation.
