Programmer response
This error is issued only for a batch input log. This condition can be caused by using an improperly closed log data set as input. Run DFSULTR0 to close the log, and then rerun the job. If the error persists, the log data set is currently unusable for batch backout or forward recovery utilities. Contact the system programmer for database recovery options.
