During a DFSMShsm space management operation, either the SCRATCH macro (for a non-VSAM data set) or an access method services DELETE command (for a VSAM data set) was issued to delete a data set, or an attempt was made to delete a data set from a VSAM small data set packing (SDSP) data set. The preceding ARC1001I message or the associated ARC0734I message gives the name of the data set.

• For a migration copy that resides in an SDSP dataset, see the associated ARC0546I or ARC0584I message in the appropriate migration or command activity log.
• Otherwise, in message ARC1001I or ARC0734I, the values for reascode are:
  • For a non-VSAM data set not residing in an SDSP data set the reascode value is:

    • Reascode
