ARC1354I
BACKUP FAILED DUE TO AN ERROR IN AN INSTALLATION EXIT. BACKUP IS HELD.

Explanation

The ARCBDEXT exit for backup processing abnormally ended (abended). DFSMShsm has placed a hold on the backup command processing so no data set will be backed up until the hold is removed with a DFSMShsm RELEASE command with the BACKUP parameter. If processing a volume backup command, the reason for the abend is given in the associated ARC0734I message, in the reason code field.

System action

DFSMShsm processing continues without the backup function.

Operator response

If the backup function can run without the installation-wide exit, turn off the installation-wide exit with a SETSYS command with the EXITOFF parameter and release the backup function with the RELEASE command with the BACKUP parameter. DFSMShsm will then run without the exit and its own backup data set criteria. If this was an unusual circumstance, the exit will not abend again. The backup function should be started again with the RELEASE command with the BACKUP parameter.

Programmer response

Fix the cause of the abend and relink the exit module. The exit can be reactivated with a SETSYS command when DFSMShsm is started.
