ARC1316I
ERROR READING PRIMARY COPY DURING BACKUP

Explanation

While DFSMShsm has attempted to read the primary copy of a data set, an I/O error has occurred, or incorrect records have been found in a variable format data set.

For incorrect records, a block descriptor word suggests a block size greater than the record size, a block size less than 8, or a block size larger than the maximum block size of 32760.

If an I/O error has occurred, an access method or hardware error message associated with this message can be found in the DFSMShsm job log SYSMSG data set. The name of the data set being backed up appears either in the preceding ARC1001I message, or in the associated ARC0734I message, with a return code of 16. For the ARC0734I message, refer to the backup activity log. In Message ARC1001I, the value for the reascode is:
Reascode
Meaning
0
Actual I/O error on input data set.
2
User header label is bad.
4
User trailer label is bad.
6
Block descriptor word (BDW) indicates an incorrect block size.
8
Partitioned data set with no EOF marker after members.
10
Data set not found in SDSP.
12
GENCB error has occurred. If the data set being backed up is an HFS File System, then one of the following may have occurred:
  • HFS is not running. The operator must start HFS.
  • The requested HFS File System has been quiesced. The file system must be unquiesced.
  • The DFSMShsm ID has not been identified as a valid OMVS ID. The ID must be defined to OMVS as a valid ID.
14
Accumulated count fields indicate more than the allowable bytes on a track.
16
Record 1 indicates more than the allowable bytes on a track.
54
PDS member has an incorrect record length. See previously issued message ARC0901I for the member name.

System action

The backup operation ends. DFSMShsm processing continues.

Programmer response

If an I/O error has occurred, respond to the associated access method or hardware error message. For information about the block descriptor word (BDW), see z/OS DFSMS Using Data Sets.
