Lizette, The rc=1 would seem to indicated the volume being dumped is not part of a Flashcopy relationship.
ADR287I(ttt)-mmmmm(yy), FCWITHDRAW WAS |ISSUED FOR VOLUME volume_serial_number ON UNIT device_number BUT |THE VOLUME WAS NOT INITIALIZED, RETURN CODE return_code |Explanation: |Following a successful DUMP operation, DFSMSdss attempted to invoke |ICKDSF to initialize the source volume of the DUMP operation because |the FCWITHDRAW keyword was specified. However, an FCWITHDRAW was still |issued against the volume as requested. The return codes below explain |the reason why the volume was not initialized: ||1 |The VTOC tracks on the source volume of the DUMP operation are |not the target of a FlashCopy relationship. | Best Regards, Dave O'Brien -----Original Message----- From: Lizette Koehler [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, November 27, 2012 12:26 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Use of FCWITHDRAW with EMC Dasd In our shop we have weekly backups that were setup with DS8300 DASD. However, we are now running EMC dasd. I am curious if we should be removing the FCWITHDRAW from the DFDSS full volume dumps. Will keeping this parm in place cause any issues with the dasd or the DUMP process? I have been googling this and nothing is show up that gives me a warm and fuzzy. The hits are just fuzzy. DUMP FULL INDD(INDD) OUTDD(OUTDD) ALLE ALLD(*) FCWD COM OPT(4) A message I see is ADR287I (001)-DDTFP(01), FCWITHDRAW WAS ISSUED FOR VOLUME XXXXXX ON UNIT A051 BECAUSE THE VOLUME WAS NOT INITIALIZED, RETURN CODE 1 And I am not sure if this is an issue.
