My guess is that a temporary sequential data set cannot be allocated. Perhaps due to lack of space on the work volumes, or due to the size of the PDS.

This has been working for months (since our upgrade to z/OS 1.11) but suddenly has stopped working. Does anyone know what VOLUME IEBCOPY might be looking for; and why it would mysteriously have gone missing? (My search for IKJ56221I seemed to point to tape volumes, but I'm definately not doing anything with tapes - just trying to TRANSMIT a LOAD module (PDS)). - Thanks for any pointers - - Dave Rivers - -- riv...@dignus.com Work: (919) 676-0847 Get your mainframe programming tools at http://www.dignus.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
