IDC11768I   [CI SPLIT | CA RECLAIM] IN PROGRESS

Explanation

Some situations, such as an ABEND, CANCEL, or a system failure, can interrupt a control interval (CI) split or a control area (CA) reclaim for an ERASE request.

An interrupted split results in VSAM backing out the CI split that is in progress and returning a nonzero return code to the PUT request that caused the CI split. When a CI split is aborted under this condition, the copy of the new CI or CA (commonly referred to as an orphan CI or CA) is left behind within the data set. This does not indicate there is a data integrity problem.

A CA reclaim interrupted at this stage will not leave behind an orphan CI or CA and there are no data integrity problems.

This message is generated when the interruption occurred at a different point of the CA reclaim processing than message IDC11778I CA RECLAIM IN PROGRESS. The two messages are mutually exclusive.

System action

The condition is temporary. The data control interval is dumped in a subsequent IDC01720I message. Processing continues.

Programmer response

The condition is temporary.

For CA RECLAIM IN PROGRESS, this IDC11768I message indicates an interruption very early in the VSAM CA reclaim process where no index CIs have been changed. For that reason, IDCAMS VERIFY RECOVER might not be able to complete or back out the CA reclaim process. Subsequent VSAM or VSAM RLS requests that encounter the data CI involved in the interrupted CA reclaim will back out the CA reclaim process, even if SETSMS CA_RECLAIM(NONE) is issued.
