DFS4487E THERE IS A PARTITION SELECTION EXIT FOR THE CATALOG, BUT THIS IS NOT ALLOWED.

Explanation

The IMS Catalog Populate utility (DFS3PU00) found that a HALDB Partition Selection exit routine is specified in the HALDB master database definition of the IMS catalog database. The IMS catalog does not support HALDB Partition Selection exit routines.

System action

The Catalog Populate utility ends with return code 20.

Programmer response

Change the HALDB master database definition to specify key-range partition selection instead of a Partition Selection exit routine. You can use the DBRC command CHANGE.DB.

When you define the high-key value of the last or only partition in the IMS catalog, the value must be high enough to include all possible PSB names. The root keys in the catalog consist of an eight-character string beginning with DBD or PSB, followed by an eight-character member name.
