PH26114: REQUESTED TABLESPACE PARALLELISM UNDULY IGNORED WHEN STACKING ISREQUESTED

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• (HPU 5.1 only) The data sets containing the unloaded data
  unloaded from different tablespaces are unduly stacked on the
  same tape although the parallelism regarding tablespaces is
  allowed, either through the PARALLELISM (..,..,ts) option or the
  setting of the VUX030/UTLPARAL parmlib parameter to ts with ts
  greater than 1.
  This occurs if the allocation of the output datasets for the
  unloaded data (specified through the OUTDDN or UNLDDN options)
  is requested through a TEMPLATE statement that specifies the
  STACK YES option.
  The expected behaviour is to unload the tablespace in parallel
  stacking output dataset on each tape mounted for each
  tablespace.
  

Local fix

• if applicable, add a "UNCNT n" to the TEMPLATE statement used
  for the allocation of the data sets containing the unload data
  where n is the desired parallelism degree. Make sure the
  TAPEUNIT specification applicable to the involved UNIT specifies
  a value grater or equal to n.
