DFS3580A READ ERROR IN RESOURCE INFORMATION FILE. MEMBER NAME = member name RETURN CODE = 12

Explanation

A read error in the resource information file (RIFL) is caused by the one of the following:
  • The record was not found.
  • An I/O error occurred.
  • The first record is not the RIFL record.
A report is not generated. Return code 12 is a Sort/Split utility return code, not an I/O return code.

Programmer response

Review the RIFL to ensure that the first record is the RIFL record and that it contains the number of resource types found in the RIFL. For more information, see Data Administration: Macro Instruction Reference for MVS/DFP.
