DFS3260I ONLINE LOG DATA SET SHORTAGE - NEED ANOTHER DATA SET

Explanation

Because of I/O errors or /STOP OLDS commands, two or less online log data sets (OLDS), are available which can be used by IMS.

System action

If two OLDS remain, IMS continues processing. If there is only one, IMS initiates a /CHE FREEZE.

Operator response

The /DISPLAY OLDS command can be used to display the status of all OLDS. When two data sets remain, any one of the following responses is acceptable:
  • No response, IMS continues processing.
  • In a z/OS environment, additional OLDS can be activated using the /START OLDS command.
  • The checkpoint command can be used to initiate an IMS shutdown.

Programmer response

No action is required.
