Good Day To All, For the past 2 days a DCOLLECT batch job has been failing because of the following : IDC21809I FAILURE ATTEMPTING TO WRITE D-TYPE RECORD. I am able to access the volume. The volume is not SMS managed and the INDEX STATUS of the volumes is enabled. I GOOGLED the error messages but I didn't find anything that would recommend a fix to the problem. I am not sure if the dsn it writes out the output to is corrupt or something else. The VVDS error message appear for several volumes and dsns. Below is an example:
.IDCAMS SYSTEM SERVICES . . DCOLLECT OUTFILE(OUTPUT) VOLUMES(*) .IDC3302I ACTION ERROR ON SMVS1.DCOLLECT.DATASETS.JOUR .IDC3309I ** RECORD X'01900000C4' NOT WRITTEN.

I am not sure where the problem could be. Could anybody suggest a solution if possible? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
