Thanks Ted for you reply..

IEC145I 413-18 form IBM manual means:
The specified data set was opened for input, but no volume serial number was 
specified on the DD statement. A recovery attempt request may be specified in 
the DCB ABEND exit routine.  

But the dataset is new create, the DD statement code as following:

//SYSCOPY1 DD DSN=BACKUPP1.SIT2CBS.IMG.TSXREF.MON2314.M0930,VOL=
(,,,255),UNIT=VTAPE,LABEL=(1,SL),RETPD=7,SPACE=(CYL,
(100,300),RLSE),DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE)

I do not think the volume serial have to be specified...

This error does not occured everytime when we submit the IMGCOPY jcl, after 
error, resubmit may ok.
