DFSMSHSM ENCOUNTERED AN SMS-RELATED ERROR WHILE OBTAINING
AN MVT ENTRY FOR AN SMS MANAGED VOLUME
Explanation
During backup command processing of a data set, DFSMShsm has
attempted to find or build an MVT entry for an SMS-managed volume
for processing the backup command. An error has occurred that has
caused the function to end. The data set name is given in the preceding
ARC1001I message, along with a reason code. The reason codes have
the following values and meanings:
- 4
- SMS is not active in the system.
DFSMShsm attempts to process
an SMS-managed volume, but SMS is not active in the system.
- 5
- Error reading volume VTOC entry for the volume being selected.
DFSMShsm reads
the volume VTOC entry to determine if the volume being selected is
an SMS-managed volume. The read fails.
- 6
- Error retrieving an SMS volume definition.
After the volume
being selected is determined to be an SMS-managed volume (by reading
the volume VTOC entry), DFSMShsm has invoked SMS to retrieve a SMS
volume definition. SMS fails to retrieve it.
- 7
- An error has occurred while retrieving a storage group definition
for an SMS volume.
After the volume definition has been retrieved
for the volume, DFSMShsm invoked
SMS to retrieve a storage group definition for the volume. SMS fails
to retrieve it.
- 9
- The volume being selected is in SMS initial status.
DFSMShsm reads
the volume VTOC entry to determine if the volume being selected is
an SMS-managed volume. The volume VTOC entry indicates that the volume
is in SMS initial status. DFSMShsm cannot process a volume in SMS
initial status.
- 11
- DFSMShsm cannot
determine if the volume being selected is an SMS-managed volume. The
SMS volume definition and the volume VTOC entry do not agree.
- 13
- If the data set is uncataloged, recatalog the data set using the
IDCAMS DEFINE RECATALOG function.
If a catalog entry exists for
the same named data set, the data set which has failed to be backed
up may have been erroneously uncataloged and a new data set with the
same name may have been created. If you wish to delete the uncataloged
data set in order to prevent DFSMShsm from producing this error for the
data set, use the IDCAMS DELETE NVR command.
- 15
- An error has occurred while reading or writing a migration control
data set (MCDS) volume record (MCV).
DFSMShsm reads an MCV record
for the volume being selected. The read failed, and an ARC0184I message
has been issued to indicate the error. If no MCV record existed for
the volume, DFSMShsm has
attempted to create an MCV record for the volume. The creation has
failed, and an ARC0184I message has been issued to indicate the error.
- 19
- The volume being selected is not mounted.
DFSMShsm has attempted to locate
the unit control block (UCB) for the volume being selected and finds
that the volume is not mounted.
- 52
- A GETMAIN error has occurred.
DFSMShsm has failed to get virtual storage
for creating a mounted volume table (MVT) entry for an SMS-managed
volume.
System action
The backup ends. DFSMShsm processing continues.
Programmer response
Perform the action that corresponds to
the reason code you received:
- 5
- The reason-code for this error is the return
code from the CAMLST OBTAIN macro. See z/OS DFSMSdfp Advanced Services for
further information about the CAMLIST OBTAIN macro.
- 6, 7
- See the preceding ARC0935I message in the command activity log
for the specific failing code from the subsystem interface (SSI) of
SMS.
- 11
- Determine why the SMS volume definition and volume VTOC entry
do not agree. Correct the inconsistency and issue the BACKDS command.
- 15
- See the preceding ARC0184I message in the appropriate activity
log for the specific I/O failing code.
- 52
- See the preceding ARC0305I message for the specific failing code.
