550: MKD failed. Error retrieving dcbdsn data set dcbdsn_name.

Explanation

The MKD command was issued to create a new PDS. The SITE DCBDSN parameter was in effect, specifying that all newly allocated data sets should use the data set dcbdsn_name as a model data set for the data set characteristics. dcbdsn_name was migrated, and when the FTP server attempted to recall the data set, an error occurred and the data set was unable to be recalled. The FTP server was therefore unable to determine the data set characteristics for the new PDS.

System action

The MKD command is rejected. Control is returned to the client connection for further command processing.

User response

Either contact the system programmer for the server system to get the dcbdsn__name recalled, or issue the SITE command to change the model DCB data set specified by the DCBDSN parameter, or use the other SITE parameters to specify the data set characteristics without using a model DCB, then reissue the MKD command.

System programmer response

Determine why dcbdsn_name could not be recalled and correct the problem.
