request specified a library device. The accompanying message IEF113I
contains the device name information. System Programmer Action: Choose a device that resides in the same library as the volume(s) to be allocated. Corresponding Message: IEF113I |
| 02C0 | (704) | Meaning: Unable to allocate
a tape device because the device is not in the same library as the
requested volume. The accompanying message IEF111I contains the device
name and library name information. System Programmer Action: Choose a device that resides in the same library as the volume(s) to be allocated. Corresponding Message: IEF111I |
| 02C4 | (708) | Meaning: The allocation failed
because the volume record for the specified volume could not be retrieved
from the tape configuration database. The accompanying message IEF150I
contains the volume serial number. System Programmer Action: Review the logrec record related to this error for information that might help to resolve why the system could not obtain the volume record for the specified volume serial number. Corresponding Message: IEF150I |
| 02C8 | (712) | Meaning: Request failed for
a library record from the tape configuration database. Application Programmer Action: None. Corresponding Message: IEF357I |
| 02CC | (716) | Meaning: The JES Client Token
(CTOKEN) was not available from the currently-running JES subsystem.
The usual cause of this problem is that the JES2 or JES3 version
installed does not support a CTOKEN request. System Programmer Action: Verify that the current level of JES supports CTOKENs (which were introduced in conjunction with Client Print support). If the proper JES version is active and the problem recurs, search the problem reporting data base for a fix for the problem. If no fix exists, contact the IBM support center. The S99INFO field may contain an internal informational code which can be reported to the IBM Support Center. |
| 02D0 | (720) | Meaning: Allocation failed in an attempt
to unload a volume needed by this job from the device where it is
currently mounted. The reason for the failure is either the device
ENQ failed or the device ASSIGN failed. Corresponding Message: IEF017I System Programmer Action: Resubmit the job or allocation request. |
| 02D3 | (723) | Meaning: Allocation failed because the
eligible volume was not on an online device, and the request did not
allow allocation to consider offline devices. System Programmer Action: Vary the eligible device online and resubmit the request. |
| 02D4 | (724) | Meaning: Allocation attempted to ALESERV
the ALLOCAS address space, and the ALESERV service returned a non-zero
return code. System Programmer Action: This error may indicate that the DU-AL is full. If the issuing program has issued many ALESERV ADDs and the DU-AL is full, delete some of the entries on the DU-AL and retry the request. If the error continues, search problem reporting databases for a fix for the problem. If no fix exists, contact the IBM Support Center. |
| 02D5 | (725) | Meaning: Allocation was already active
when IEFDB440 was running as an IRB under a task. Application Programmer Action: IEFDB440 should not be invoked in this environment. Make sure that you adhere to this restriction. Contact the owner of the subsystem that scheduled the IRB. System Programmer Action: None. |
| 02D6 | (726) | Meaning: Allocation failed because there
were no available offline devices within the specified esoteric, so
there are no eligible devices to be brought online by Recovery Allocation
processing to satisfy the request. System Programmer Action: Verify that the volume serial specified is valid, and that it is online in the specified esoteric. Correct the volume serial or unit information if necessary. |
| 02D7 | (727) | Meaning: The current environment cannot
support dynamic allocation requests. System Programmer Action: Retry allocation request at a later time. |
| 02D8 | (728) | Meaning: When attempting to allocate
devices to this request, Allocation was prevented from using EAV devices
because of the “USEEAV(NO)” setting in the IGDSMSxx parmlib member.
For a request with specific volumes in the volume list, the setting
prevented the allocation. For a non-specific request, such as one
with UNIT=SYSDA and no volume list, the exclusion of the EAV volumes
did not leave enough volumes to allocate the request. Application Programmer Action: Select another esoteric unit name for the UNIT parameter, a different volume serial for the request, or contact the System Programmer. System Programmer Action: See System Programmer response for IEF021I. If EAV volumes are needed, use the SETSMS command to change the USEEAV setting in IGDSMSxx. |
| 02D9 | (729) | Meaning: Allocation failed because there
were not enough available tape library devices to satisfy the request. System Programmer Action: If possible, make more tape devices available in the requested library by varying them available or by varying them online. Resubmit the request. |
| 02DA | (730) | Meaning: The dynamic allocation request specified DALSMSHR for a tape library request, but the unit name on the DALUNIT is not valid. Application Programmer Response: Correct the dynamic allocation request to use a valid unit name, and resubmit the request. |
| 02DB | (731) | Meaning: The dynamic allocation request specified DALSMSHR and DALUNIT for a single device, but it is a restricted device. Application Programmer Response: Correct the dynamic allocation request to use a device that is not restricted, and resubmit the request. |
| 02DC | (732) | Meaning: The request specified DALSMSHR and DALUNIT for a single device, but the device is in use by the system. Application Programmer Response: Correct the error either by using another device or by waiting until the device is no longer in use by the system, and resubmit the request. |
| 02DD | (733) | Meaning: The request specified DALSMSHR and DALUNIT for a single device, but the device is boxed. Application Programmer Response: Correct the error either by using another device or by issuing a VARY ONLINE command for the boxed device, and resubmit the request. |
| 02DE | (734) | Meaning: The request specified DALSMSHR and DALUNIT for a specific device, but the device is marked unavailable for allocation. Application Programmer Response: Correct
the dynamic allocation request to use another device, or make the
device available by issuing VARY ONLINE or VARY AVAILABLE commands,
and resubmit the request.
Note: The application programmers probably
cannot issue the VARY commands themselves, but they must ask the system
programmer to ensure that the device is online and available.
|
 02DF |
(735) |
Meaning: The MOUNT command for a tape library device with a tape library volume specified a device which was not found in the device pools returned by the system. This could be because the media types of the device and volume requested are different. Application Programmer Response: Specify another device or request another volume.

(DALOVAFF) was specified, but a SYSOUT program name (DALSPGNM) of
'INTRDR' was not specified. Application Programmer Action: Specify a program name for the internal reader. Corresponding Message: None. |
| 03B8 | (952) | Meaning: The system does not
allocate the data set and fails the dynamic allocation that specified
a two-digit year expiration Date (yyddd) Text Unit (DALEXPDT) and
the 2DGT_EXPDT Policy of Fail is in effect. A two-digit Expiration
Date year implies a year date of the form 19xx where xx is the two-digit
year specified by DALEXPDT (yyddd). Therefore, the use of DALEXPDT
does not allow the specification of an Expiration Date after December
31, 1999. Application Programmer Action: Modify the application's dynamic allocation parameter input to replace the DALEXPDT text unit with the DALEXDPL text unit which uses the 4-digit year format. Corresponding Message: IEF406I. |
| 03BC | (956) | Meaning: The system does not allocate
the data set and fails the dynamic allocation request. The request
was for a new VSAM generation data set, which is not valid because
generation data sets cannot be VSAM. Application Programmer Action: Correct the application's dynamic allocation input to either create a generation data set that is not a VSAM data set, or a VSAM data set that is not a member of a generation data group, depending on the intent of the original allocation request. The data set name and relative generation number are indicated by the DALDSNAM and DALMEMBR text units. A data set can be explicitly defined as a VSAM data set by the DALRECO text unit, or implicitly defined by a reference to another data set or DD name using the DALDCBDS or DALDCBDD text units.
