DFS4004W LOG WRAPS AFTER RECORD record
number
CURRENT RECORD TIME STAMP: time
stamp
PRIOR RECORD TIME STAMP : time
stamp
Explanation
The value for the store clock time on the current
record is earlier than the store clock time on the prior record. Time
stamps must always be in ascending order. The possible reasons for this
problem include:
- The log being processed is an open OLDS data set. An Open OLDS data set does not have an end-of-file mark, such that records following the current entry in the OLDS are residual from the last time the log was used.
- Multiple logs have been concatenated as input and are out of sequence.
System action
The Create RDDS from Log Records utility (DFSURCL0) treats the prior record, with the larger time stamp value, as the end of file and performs end-of-log processing. It terminates successfully with return code 4.
Programmer response
If multiple log data sets are being processed, ensure that the log data sets are concatenated in the proper order. If this message was issued because of processing an open OLDS, even if the processing was successful, close the OLDS by issuing a /SWI OLDS command. Then run the utility again to avoid the message.
