Classification: Confidential If it is not particularly important to recover the data, the FIXCDS command can be used to delete the "bad" records'. Check the fine manuals.

Unless you trust the sender, Don't click links or open attachments as it may be a Phishing email, which can steal your Information and compromise your Computer.] Hi Nigel, That is exactly what I did run. The ERR 39 are what remains after I managed to fix all the other errors. Three different backups with that error. I get the name of the PDS to be backed up, the names of the existing backups and the ERR39 error messages, with binary zeros where a backup name should have been. So, I have (n-number of ERR39 messages) backups and not a clue how to fix it. I have been reading the manuals but to no avail. I think that I will have to report a problem to IBM.
