2111W MCC ENTRY IS MISSING MCB ENTRY

Explanation

Audit Suite has found an orphaned MCC entry. Either the MCB is missing altogether or the referenced MCC is not contained in the array of MCCs within the MCB record. The MCC is a record in the BCDS whose key is the HSM generated alias name of the backup. The MCC is required for a successful RECOVER of a data set. It contains all the information about what tape it is on, its size, etc. In the MCC is a reference back to the true data set name or the MCB. The MCB is a record in the BCDS whose key is the true name of the data set that was backed up. It contains an array of HSM generated alias names which are the keys of the MCC record. The recycle of the tape volume containing this data set might fail. If it is successful, it will recycle data that is not RECOVERABLE. Since the true name does not exist, a RECOVER for this backup version will fail because HSM can not find the true name.
