(ttt)-mmmmm(yy), VOLUME volume_serial_number ON UNIT device_number CANNOT BE INITIALIZED BECAUSE IT IS CURRENTLY IN USE

Explanation

Following a successful DUMP operation, DFSMSdss attempted to invoke ICKDSF to initialize the source volume of the DUMP operation because the FCWITHDRAW keyword was specified and the VTOC tracks were the target of a FlashCopy® relationship. However, it was determined that the ICKDSF INIT function would have failed because DFSMSdss detected that the device is currently in use by someone other than DFSMSdss, so the ICKDSF INIT was not performed. However, an FCWITHDRAW was still issued against the volume as requested.

System action

DFSMSdss processing continues. The return code is 0.

Operator response

None.

Programmer response

The volume may have been in use because of non-DFSMSdss access to data on the volume. In this case, either code VOL=(PRIVATE,SER=xxxxxx) in the associated DD statement or request the operator to issue a mount command with the USE=PRIVATE subparameter to reduce the possibility of other jobs allocating (or accessing) the volume. The volume can be in use because there might be a user catalog on the volume that is allocated to the catalog address space (CAS). If the ADMINSTRATOR keyword was not specified DFSMSdss possibly invoked CAS to check for authorization to process the data set, which would have caused CAS to allocate the volume that is being processed. Specifying the ADMINISTRATOR keyword can prevent DFSMSdss from invoking CAS to perform authorization checking and causing CAS to allocate the volume.
