Question & Answer


Question

DELETE VVDS receives the following messages: MSGIEC614I SCRATCH FAILED RC08, DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION IS 04060020, DELDEF,339001,SYS1.VVDS.V339001

Answer

Description:

DELETE VVDS receives the following messages:
MSGIEC614I SCRATCH FAILED RC08,
DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION IS 04060020, DELDEF,339001,SYS1.VVDS.V339001
MSGIEC331I 050-040( ,339001,JOBNAME,STEPNAME,VSCR,IGG0CLE1
MSGIDC3009I ** VSAM CATALOG RETURN CODE IS 50  - REASON CODE IS IGG0CLE1-40

Volume 339001 was initialized as an SMS volume but has been deleted from its storage group.
A 'F CATALOG,VCLOSE(339001)' completed successfully.

A 'F CATALOG,VUNALLOCATE(339001)' was issued but was unsuccessful.

The intent is to make the volume non SMS-managed.


Resolution:

The SFI error information indicates that the FMT4 DSCB still has flag bits on, indicating the volume is SMS-managed. Run a CONVERTV job to unconvert the volume from SMS. When a volume is deleted from a storage group, any allocation, such as DELETE will not go through SMS, but the SMS flags in the VTOC remain on until the CONVERTV is run.
