EDG6799E
ERROR OPENING MASTER FILE, RC = return_code, REASON = reason_code

Explanation

The EDGUTIL utility was unable to open the DFSMSrmm control data set. The return_code is a VSAM OPEN error return code. DFSMSrmm issues the return_code 16 when incorrect share options are set because DISP=OLD is specified. EDGUTIL MEND and EDGUTIL VERIFY require DISP=SHR for the control data set.

In the message text:
return_code
The VSAM OPEN error return code in decimal.
reason_code
The VSAM reason code in decimal.

System action

The utility ends. DFSMSrmm sets return code 12.

Operator response

None.

System programmer response

If the return code is 16, check that DISP=SHR is specified for the MASTER DD statement or for the MASTERB DD statement when BLSR is used. Return and reason codes are documented in z/OS DFSMS Macro Instructions for Data Sets.

Programmer response

If the return code is 12, correct the job control language (JCL) used to submit the job and re-submit the job.
