Explanation

An allocation, OPEN, or I/O error occurred in writing to the indicated data set used during aggregate backup or aggregate recovery.
  • ALLOCATION indicates the data set received an allocation error.
  • OPEN indicates the data set received an open error.
  • I/O indicates an error occurred in writing output to the data set.
  • SYSIN indicates that the SYSIN data set containing DFSMSdss control cards received the error.
  • FILTER indicates that the FILTER data set containing the list of data set names to be processed by DFSMSdss received the error.
    Note: This is not the data set specified in the FILTEROUTPUTDATASET parameter of the ABACKUP command.
  • INSTRUCTION indicates that the dummy instruction data set created (because none was specified in the aggregate group definition) received the error.
  • data-set-name1 is the name of the data set that received the error.
  • BACKUP indicates that the error occurred during aggregate backup processing.
  • RECOVERY indicates that the error occurred during aggregate recovery processing.
  • AGGREGATE GROUP agname is the name of the aggregate group being processed (aggregate backup only).
  • CONTROL FILE DATA SET data-set-name2 is the name of the control file specified in the ARECOVER command (aggregate recovery only).

System action

Aggregate backup or aggregate recovery fails.

Programmer response

For allocation errors, ensure that public or storage DASD volumes are available on the system.

For specific error return codes or reason codes associated with the failure, see previous message ARC0645I or ARC6164E in the ABARS secondary address space activity log for this aggregate group.

Correct the error and reissue the ABACKUP or ARECOVER command.
