DSNJ070I csect-name ARCHIVE LOG DSN PREFIX NOT IN PROPER FORMAT TO RECEIVE TIMESTAMP DATA. TIMESTAMPING OF dsnname BYPASSED

Explanation

By way of a ZPARM parameter, the user has specified that the date and time of creation of an archive log data set be included as part of the archive log data set name (DSN). To accomplish this, the Db2 subsystem requires that the length of the archive log data set name prefix not exceed 19 characters if using the standard DATE format (YYDDD), or 17 characters if using the extended DATE format (YYYYDDD). If the prefix requirement is not met, this message is issued just prior to the allocation of the archive log data set specified in the message.

System action

The archive log data set will be allocated using the archive log prefix. However, the archive log DSN will not contain the date and time as the user requested.

Operator response

Notify the system programmer.

System programmer response

The values of TSTAMP and ARCPFXn subsystem parameters are not consistent with one another and must be changed.
