GFSA815I
RENAME FAILED: RC h_digits1 OLDDSN text1 VOL text2 UNIT h_digits2 NEWDSN text3.

Explanation

The error h_digits1 was detected during an attempt to rename the non-VSAM data set text1 to text3. The value of text2 is disk volume serial number. The value of h_digits2 is the disk device type code.

System action

NFS processing continues.

System programmer response

The value of h_digits1 is a composite of one or more error return codes that the system encountered when trying to rename the data set. You can decode the hexadecimal digits using the following list.

Renaming a data set requires three steps:

  1. Uncatalog the old data set name,
  2. Rename the data set in the disk VTOC, and
  3. Catalog the new data set name.

Should an error occur in either of the last two steps, the prior step or steps are undone to preserve the old data set name.

Find the step that failed by matching the value in byte zero of the return code with one of the values under the heading Byte 0 in the following list. Byte three contains the return code from the first failing DFP service (uncatalog/catalog or DADSM rename). If more errors occur during an attempt to recatalog or rename the data set back to the old name, the return codes are placed in bytes one and two respectively.
Byte 0
Meaning/other bytes
00
Error uncataloging old data set name. Byte 3: Uncatalog return code.
01
Error renaming the data set. Byte 1: Recatalog return code for old data set name. Byte 3: DADSM rename return code.
02
Error cataloging new data set name. Byte 1: Recatalog return code for old data set name. Byte 2: DADSM rename return code for old data set name. Byte 3: Catalog return code for new data set name.

Catalog and DADSM rename return codes are documented in z/OS DFSMSdfp Advanced Services.

Message IEC614I is written for DADSM rename errors and contains more diagnostic codes. These codes are documented in z/OS DFSMSdfp Diagnosis.
