Personally I would remove the FCWITHDRAW.

Subject: Re: Use of FCWITHDRAW with EMC Dasd
Dave,
We no longer use IBM DASD only EMC dasd, so I am not sure that FCWITHDRAW
should still be used, which is my question.
EMC has a replication process that we do use on these volumes.
The volume is being dumped from DASD (INDD) to TAPE (OUTDD).
So Here is the JCL
XXJS00001 EXEC PGM=ADRDSSU,REGION=6M,COND=(4,LT)
XXSYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
XXINDD DD DISP=SHR,UNIT=SYSALLDA,VOL=SER=XXXXXX
XXOUTDD DD DSN=YYYYYYYY.VOLBKUP.OFFSITE.XXXXXX(+1),
XX DISP=(,CATLG,DELETE),
XX UNIT=JAGT,
XX VOL=(,RETAIN,,,REF=YYYYYYYY.VOLBKUP.OFF.XXYY00.D121118.T080037),
XX LABEL=(002,SL)
XXSYSIN DD DISP=SHR,DSN=YYYYYYYY.VOLBKUP.CTL(DFDSS12)
The output
PAGE 0001 5695-DF175 DFSMSDSS V1R12.0 DATA SET SERVICES 2012.323 09:54
DUMP FULL INDD(INDD) OUTDD(OUTDD) ALLE ALLD(*) FCWD COM OPT(4)
00010002
ADR101I (R/I)-RI01 (01), TASKID 001 HAS BEEN ASSIGNED TO COMMAND 'DUMP '
ADR109I (R/I)-RI01 (01), 2012.323 09:54:25 INITIAL SCAN OF USER CONTROL
STATEMENTS COMPLETED
ADR016I (001)-PRIME(01), RACF LOGGING OPTION IN EFFECT FOR THIS TASK
ADR006I (001)-STEND(01), 2012.323 09:54:25 EXECUTION BEGINS
ADR287I (001)-DDTFP(01), FCWITHDRAW WAS ISSUED FOR VOLUME XXXXXX ON UNIT A051
BECAUSE THE VOLUME WAS NOT INITIALIZED, RETURN CODE 1
ADR006I (001)-STEND(02), 2012.323 10:13:13 EXECUTION ENDS
ADR013I (001)-CLTSK(01), 2012.323 10:13:13 TASK COMPLETED WITH RETURN CODE 0000
ADR012I (SCH)-DSSU (01), 2012.323 10:13:13 DFSMSDSS PROCESSING COMPLETE.
HIGHEST RETURN CODE IS 0000
So if I am on EMC Dasd should I remove the FCWITHDRAW when that process is
probably not being used? Or since the message indicates a 0 return code, I can
just ignore this?
