APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• A BMP attempted to allocate a database but failed with DFS2503W
  message, rc0210.  After the failed allocation, a /STA DATABASE
  command was issued for the same database but it was rejected
  with DFS0565I message indicating the database was still in use
  by the BMP.  In the situation that lead to this problem being
  reported, the BMP had to be ABDUMP'ed before the /STA command
  would be processed successfully.

  ****************************************************************
  A program attempted to allocate a database but failed with
  message DFS2503W Reason Code 0210.  After the dynamic allocation
  failure a /STA DATABASE command was issued for the same database
  but is rejected with message DFS0565I indicating the database is
  still in use by the application.  To successfully process the
  start database command all applications, that scheduled with the
  database unavailable, must be canceled.  This can become
  burdensome with a large number of active applications.
  

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• This apar is closed as "FIN". The problem reported in this apar
  will be fixed in a future release/version of IMS, tracked by PTM
  KFN0507.
  
  Note:  Only those databases that are not allocated and
  authorized can be allocated via a /STA DB command.
