OA37851: GZD3311I I/O REJECTED

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• REQUEST REJECTED:<jobname>, <unit>,<reason> <dsname>
  
  Error encountered after a data set associated with a zDMF
  Migration Group in MIRROR was deleted followed by the internal
  deletion of the corresponding target data set. Subsequent
  processing may result in an allocation in the same extent
  location where the target file resided so requests to write to
  these tracks are rejected incorrectly.

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All zDMF users.                              *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: A data set being migrated is deleted    *
  *                      on one system.  The target data set     *
  *                      related to the deleted data set is      *
  *                      also deleted.  Subsequent to the        *
  *                      deletion, the DASD space formerly       *
  *                      occupied by the target data set is      *
  *                      reallocated to a new data set.          *
  *                      On a system where the original          *
  *                      delete did NOT occur, when I/O is       *
  *                      attempted to the new data set, zDMF     *
  *                      may reject that I/O issuing message     *
  *                      GZD3311I.  zDMF interprets the I/O      *
  *                      as an interloper on a target            *
  *                      data set.                               *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply PTF and WARM start.                    *
  ****************************************************************
  zDMF rejects I/O directed at DASD space formerly allocated
  to a deleted target data set.
  

Problem conclusion

• GZDDBHB is modified to mark the extent descriptor control
  blocks (DWEXT) deleted whenever a data set being migrated
  is deleted.
