DFS2513I AREA=areaname DD=ddname WRITE ERROR

Explanation

An I/O write error occurred while writing a formatted control interval (CI).

System action

The Fast Path utility being used terminates.

Programmer response

A possible hardware error has occurred, and it might be necessary to allocate space for the DEDB data set on a different DASD device.

This error might also be the result of attempting to allocate an ADS greater than 4 GB, the maximum size of a DEDB area.

Verify the UOW, ROOT and SIZE parameters from the DBDGEN. Do not allocate a DEDB area that is greater than 4 GB in size.

Verify that the initial size for the VSAM CLUSTER is not greater than 4 GB.
