IDC3026I   DUPLICATE DATA SPACE NAME ON VOLUME

Explanation

A DEFINE operation specifies the name of a data set, with the UNIQUE attribute, but there is already a data set on the volume with the same name. This will also occur when attempting to define a key sequenced data set (KSDS), with the UNIQUE attribute, which has more than one key range on the same volume. See the associated second-level message for the specific catalog management error code values.

In the Time Sharing Option/Extensions (TSO/E) environment the second-level message is not displayed, except by request. To request it, enter a question mark (?) after the TSO READY message.

System action

The system ends the command.

Programmer response

Choose another data set name. Scratch the original data set from the volume. If duplication is due to key ranges, ensure that each UNIQUE key range is on a separate volume.
