Thanks, looks like that was it.

We thought we were up-to-date when we switched, but that one was missing.

DB2/VM dataspace problem on zVM 5.20 (was Re: Attention DB2/VM users)

2006-07-08 Thread Ethan Lanz
Is this issue resolved?

Last night we moved from a z800 (2066?)  to a z9 (2096).  We had been 
running DB2/VM 7.4 utilizing dataspaces on zVM5.2 for several weeks on the 
old box, but since moving to the z9, the databases are abending with 
ARI0040E ... ARISIIO 05 which indicates directory corruption. 

I have a call in to IBM, but thought I would see what info I could gather 
from the list while I wait for a call-back.
