DFS4481E UNEXPECTED STATUS CODE status-code ON PARTITION INITIALIZATION OF CATALOG DATABASE catalog-dbd.

Explanation

The IMS Catalog Populate utility (DFS3PU00) received an unexpected PCB status code after issuing a DL/I call to initialize a partition in the IMS catalog database. The status code could indicate one of the following errors:
  • An IMS error
  • A structural error in one of the DBDs that define the IMS catalog or in one of the PSB provide access to the IMS catalog
  • Unsupported manipulation of the contents of the IMS catalog
In the message text:
catalog-dbd
The name of the IMS catalog database that contains the partition that the DFS3PU00 utility was attempting to initialize when the status code was received.
status-code
The name of the logical DBD that the DFS3PU00 utility did not find in any DBD library referenced in the utility JCL.

System action

The DFS3PU00 utility ends with return code 16.
