  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: DR preparation job fails to delete      *
  *                      SUBSYS record and terminates process    *
  *                      with CC=08 and MSGBSY0418E - BSY@YDBC   *

  ****************************************************************
  IMS Recovery Expert Disaster Recovery (DR) preparation job fails
  with RC=08 and the following:
  1) message in the job log BSYERROR DD
   BSY0418E - BSY@YDBC - DBRC EXEC function failed
  2) message in the job log DBRCMSGS DD
    CHANGE.SUBSYS  SSID(ssid) ABNORMAL
   DSP0169I  BATCH BACKOUT IS NOT NEEDED FOR SUBSYSTEM
   DSP0169I  SSIDNAME=ssid
   DSP0203I  COMMAND COMPLETED WITH CONDITION CODE 00
   DSP0220I  COMMAND COMPLETION TIME yy.ddd hh:mm:ss.ssssss
    CHANGE.SUBSYS  SSID(BSYDLIBA) STARTRCV
   DSP0166I  SUBSYSTEM RECORD NOT FOUND IN RECON
   DSP0166I  SSIDNAME=ssid
   DSP0209I  PROCESSING TERMINATED WITH CONDITION CODE = 12
   DSP0217I  THE FOLLOWING SYSIN RECORDS HAVE BEEN SKIPPED:
    CHANGE.SUBSYS  SSID(ssid) ENDRECOV
    DELETE.SUBSYS  SSID(ssid)
  
  DR preparation process deletes subsystem (SUBSYS) records in
  the RECON data set for DR. To delete SUBSYS records, DR
  preparation job issues a series of DBRC commands:
   1) CHANGE.SUBSYS ABNORMAL
   2) CHANGE.SUBSYS STARTRCV
   3) CHANGE.SUBSYS ENDRCV
   4) DELETE.SUBSYS
  However, if SUBSYS status does not need any DB batch backout,
  CHANGE.SUBSYS ABNORAML command deletes SUBSYS record and
  the other commands fail due to target subsystem already deleted.
  IMS Recovery Expert cannot handle this case, and DR Preparation
  job fails.
  

Problem conclusion

• IMS Recovery Expert has been fixed to handle the case described
  in the PROBLEM SUMMARY section.
