jobname [procstep] stepname ddname[+ xxx] - DATA SET NOT FOUND

Explanation

In processing a DD statement, the system found one of the following:

  • The data set name in the DSNAME parameter did not contain all the levels of qualification, so that the system could not locate the cataloged data set.
  • The data set name specified on the DCB parameter or on the REF subparameter of the VOLUME parameter was not cataloged or did not contain all the levels of qualification, so that the system could not locate the data set.
  • The data set was not cataloged or passed.
  • A level of index was either missing or incorrect in a generation data group (GDG).
  • A step tried to receive a passed data set. However, the data set has been received as many times as it was passed.
  • The DISP parameter specified MOD, SHR, or OLD on a DD statement requesting all levels of a GDG, but there are no levels.
  • The DD statement requested a data set cataloged in a user catalog. The JCL did not contain a JOBCAT or STEPCAT DD statement.
  • The SER subparameter of the VOLUME parameter specified an SMS-managed volume and the data set was not cataloged.
In the message text:
jobname
The name of the job.
procstep
The name of the step in the procedure.
stepname
The name of the job step.
ddname
The name of the DD statement.
+ xxx
The relative position of a data set within a concatenation of data sets, including all data sets implicitly concatenated (through GDG ALL or OPTCD=B requests). See z/OS MVS JCL User's Guide for more information on GDG ALL or OPTCD=B requests when used within a set of concatenated data sets. The first data set of a concatenation would be +000, but the value +000 is never shown.

System action

The system ends the job.

System programmer response

For a data set name of the form G0000V00, do the following:

  1. Using IEHLIST, list all the data set names for that GDG.
  2. Using IEHPROGM, rename the data sets in the same order as they exist, starting with G0001V00 or higher. Uncatalog the data sets using the original data set names, then catalog the data sets using the new names.

Programmer response

Do one of the following:

  • If the data set name was specified incorrectly, correct it.
  • If the DCB or VOLUME parameters were incorrect, correct them.
  • If the data set was not cataloged, either catalog it or, on the DD statement, specify the volume serial number of the volume on which the data set resides.
  • If the DD statement was correct, recatalog the data set.
  • If the data set name is of the form G0000V00, notify the system programmer.
