IEC034I INCONSISTENT RECORD FORMATS rc1 AND rc2, ddn-#,dsname
Explanation
This is an informational message issued during processing of an OPEN macro instruction for processing sequentially concatenated data sets using BSAM. The RECFM of one of the concatenated data sets is inconsistent with the RECFM of the first data set in the concatenation.
- rc1
- RECFM of the first data set in the concatenation.
- rc2
- RECFM of the data set that is inconsistent with the first data set.
- ddn-#
- DDname (followed by a concatenation number if it is part of a concatenation and not the first DD statement in the concatenation).
- dsname
- Data set name of the data set which has an inconsistent RECFM.
System action
Processing continues.
System programmer response
If the error recurs and the program is not in error, search problem reporting data bases for a fix for the problem. If no fix exists, contact the IBM® Support Center. Provide the JCL and all printed output related to the problem.
Programmer response
Probable user error. If this is an error, then either process the data sets with unlike concatenation or ensure all concatenated data sets have compatible RECFMs. See z/OS DFSMS Using Data Sets for information about sequential concatenation processing.
