BBE3216E RECON ACCESS FAILED: FUNC=function RC=return_code RSN=reason_code

Explanation

DB Sensor attempted to use the DBRC API to obtain the database information from DBRC. However, the DBRC API did not complete successfully.

System action

DB Sensor processing ends with return code 8.

User response

The probable cause of this error is that one of the following conditions occurred:
  • DBRC (PGM=DSPURX00) could not initialize the RECON data sets (INIT.RECON).
  • The database is not registered to the RECON data sets.
  • IMSPLEX, DBRCGRP, and SCI exit are inconsistent with the definitions in the RECON data sets.
  • The RECON version that is defined in the RECON data sets is not the same as the IMS RESLIB version that is specified to the STEPLIB.
Ensure that the DBRC and RECON definitions are correct. Browse the DB Sensor JCL (PGM=BBESNSR) and ensure that the IMSPLEX and DBRCGRP that are specified on the EXEC PARM= parameters are correct and that the SCI exit module exists in the STEPLIB data sets. In addition, check the meaning of function, return_code, and reason_code in the topic about Database Recovery Control (DBRC) in IMS System Programming APIs.
