DSNU335I csect-name INPUT FIELD 'ffffffff' NOT ENTIRELY WITHIN INPUT RECORD

Explanation

The LOAD utility found that the input field 'ffffffff' extends beyond the end of the input record.

If DISCARDS processing is active, the message severity is 4 (warning).

System action

For fixed length records, with no VARCHARs included, the length needed by the LOAD utility can be calculated before processing. In this case, when the LOAD utility determines that no records can be loaded because ALL of the INTO TABLE statements require input longer than the defined lengths, the LOAD job terminates on the first record without discarding any records. Further utility processing with mixed or non-fixed length records is terminated unless DISCARDS processing is active.

User response

Correct the input data and resubmit the job. Make sure that the 'field specification' on the LOAD statement is consistent with the table definition and the input data. This might mean changing:
  • The table definition
  • The LOAD statement
  • The input data.

Severity

4 (warning) or 8 (error)
