DATA SET data-set-name IS NOT SUPPORTED IN AN {INCLUDE | ALLOCATE | ACCOMPANY} LIST FOR AGGREGATE GROUP agname

Explanation

A data set name specified in an INCLUDE, ALLOCATE, or ACCOMPANY list from a selection data set for this aggregate group is not supported by ABACKUP; or during ARECOVER, the data set is not supported at the release level being executed.
  • data-set-name is the name of the data set that is not supported.
  • INCLUDE indicates that the data set is in an INCLUDE list.
  • ALLOCATE indicates that the data set is in an ALLOCATE list.
  • ACCOMPANY indicates that the data set is in an ACCOMPANY list.
  • agname is the name of the aggregate group being processed.

System action

ABACKUP fails. ARECOVER fails for the specified data set.

Programmer response

For ABACKUP, ensure that all data sets specified in the INCLUDE, ALLOCATE, or ACCOMPANY lists are acceptable for processing. Some examples of unsupported situations are:
  • data-set-name represents a GDG base.
  • The data set organization is unsupported.
  • The data set BLOCKSIZE or LRECL is invalid or larger than supported by the ABARS release being executed.
  • data-set-name does not reside on a supported device.
  • data-set-name is in the ACCOMPANY list, but is migrated.
  • data-set-name is a z/FS data set.
  • Non-VSAM data-set-name data set (with the exception of Extended Format Sequential data set) has a format-8 DSCB.
  • User catalog data-set name has a format-8 DSCB. Migrated data set data-set-name has a format-8 DSCB.
  • Start of change data-set-name is an SMS-managed PDSE defined as a generation data set. Use DFSMShsm V2R1 or higher to process the data setEnd of change
  • The size of data-set-name data set specified in the ALLOCATE list exceeds 2 Terabytes. Use DFSMShsm V1R13 or higher to perform an ABACKUP for this data set.
  • Start of changeNon-SMS VSAM linear data set which has the Extended Addressable(EA) attribute specified. Use DFSMShsm V2R1 or higher to perform ABACKUP for this data set if it is not a zFS data set. End of change
For ARECOVER, ensure that all data sets specified in the INCLUDE, ALLOCATE, or ACCOMPANY lists are acceptable for processing:
  • Ensure that the data set BLOCKSIZE is supported by executing ABARS release.
  • Non-VSAM data-set-name data set has a Format 8 DSCB.
  • Ensure that the pre-allocated target non-VSAM data-set-name data set (with the exception of Extended Format Sequential data sets) does not have a format-8 DSCB.
  • The size of data-set-name data set specified in the ALLOCATE list exceeds 2 Terabytes. Use DFSMShsm V1R13 or higher to perform an ARECOVER for this data set.
  • The MCD indicates the data set is greater than 2 Terabytes. Use DFSMShsm V1R13 for aggregate recovery of this data set.
  • Start of changedata-set-name specified in the ALLOCATE list is an SMS-managed PDSE defined as a generation data set. Use DFSMShsm V2R1 or higher to process the data setEnd of change
  • Start of changeEnsure that the size of the data-set-name data set that was aggregate backed up in V1R13 or later is not greater than the architectural limit for this release (2 Terabytes). Otherwise, use DFSMShsm V1R13 or higher for aggregate recovery of this data set.End of change
  • SAM data set which has the Extended Format of version 2 specified. Use DFSMShsm V2R1 or higher to perform ARECOVER for this data set.
