IDC3171I CATALOG PARAMETER NOT ALLOWED ON DEFINE PAGESPACE UNLESS RECATALOG SPECIFIED
Explanation
An attempt was made to perform a DEFINE PAGESPACE command with a CATALOG subparameter where RECATALOG was not specified. This is no longer allowed.
System action
The system ends the command with an error message and a condition code of 12.
Operator response
None.
System programmer response
If the error recurs and the program is not in error, search problem reporting data bases for a fix for this problem. If no fix exists, contact the IBM® Support Center. Provide the JCL, the SYSOUT output for the job, and all printed output and output data sets related to the problem.
Programmer response
Remove the CATALOG parameter. When defining a new pagespace, the pagespace must be able to be found by the normal catalog search order. If an alias is needed to orient the new data set name to a specific user catalog, that alias should be defined before attempting the DEFINE PAGESPACE.
