Claude, These are in the DFSMSdfp Diagnosis Ref, under the appropriate DADSM function. For SCRATCH (Table 61), I get
X'04' X'0B' ENQRET X'25' Verify DADSM SCRATCH request; enqueue on SYSDSN failed. hth, Richard Crook zOS Technical Specialist, (64 4) 576-9795 [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Richbourg, Claude" <richbourg.claude To @MAIL.DC.STATE.FL IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU .US> cc Sent by: IBM Mainframe Subject Discussion List A DADSM error while scratching a <[EMAIL PROTECTED] dsn. .EDU> 09/01/2008 02:34 PM Please respond to IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[EMAIL PROTECTED] .EDU> Sending again as I did not get a copy back from the list server. Hello all, This one stumps me for now and I need some help from the group. I am at z/OS 1.7 and in the process of cleaning up un-cataloged datasets on SMS managed volumes. This one that is holding tight is a non-vsam PO dataset. I usually run this JCL to delete them and it works fine: //STEP1 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //DISK DD DISP=SHR,UNIT=3390,VOL=SER=DASEFA //SYSIN DD * DELETE XXXXXXX.XXXXXX NVR FILE(DISK) /* The job gets a return code of '0', but the dataset is still there. A =3.4 display shows it, as well as an old IEHLIST job. In looking in the log or messages portion of the output from the delete job, I see this: IEC331I 042-006(040B0425),DELNVR1 ,STEP1 ,SCRT,IGG0CLH0 IEC331I VOL,DASEFA,NAME,XXXXXXX.XXXXX IEF142I DELNVR1 STEP1 - STEP WAS EXECUTED - COND CODE 0000 The fine manual says: RETURN CODE 42 Explanation: A DADSM error occurred on branch entry to DADSM back end. The DADSM error return data from the invoked sub-function (SFI) field is the value of the variable sfierror in message IEC331I. REASON CODE 6 Explanation: A DADSM SCRATCH error occurred on branch entry. No luck finding the '040B0425' meaning so far. Now the REAL question, how can I delete this dsn. Any and all responses are quite welcome. Regards, Claude Richbourg The contents of this e-mail are confidential.
