DFS2691A LOG DATA SET IS INVALID, TERMINATE. CURRENT CHKPT ID=xxxxxxx, PROCESSING CHKPT ID=xxxxxxx

Explanation

One of the following problems occurred:
  • Log data set checkpoint IDs were not in ascending order.
  • The main storage database (MSDB) or extended communications node table (ECNT) definition did not match the definition in the MSDBCP1/CP2/DMP data set.

Two checkpoint IDs are printed. If the IDs are the same, then the problem is either a mismatch in the MSDB or ECNT definition, or the checkpoint IDs are out of sequence. The second checkpoint ID is the one in error.

Note: The ECNT definition is the result of the TERMINAL macros in IMS system definition.

System action

The utility terminates with return code 4. The database is not usable.

Programmer response

Make sure that the log data sets are specified in the correct sequence, and that all log data sets are from IMS sessions that have identical MSDB and TERMINAL definitions.
