Explanation
For a COPY FULL or a COPY TRACKS operation specifying one track range that includes the entire
volume, space efficient FlashCopy® must be used to
perform the full volume copy to a space efficient volume. DFSMSdss was unable to establish a space efficient FlashCopy relationship for one of the following reasons:
- FASTREPLICATION(NONE) was specified. DFSMSdss failed the operation because the keyword prohibits space efficient FlashCopy.
- FCSETGTOK(FAILRELATION) and FCNOCOPY were not specified. Space efficient FlashCopy is not permitted unless both of these keywords are
specified.
- At least one of the volumes was not eligible to participate in a space efficient FlashCopy relationship at this time.
- DFSMSdss attempted to establish a
space efficient FlashCopy relationship and failed with
an error.
System action
DFSMSdss terminates the full volume
copy operation. The return code is 8.
Operator response
Programmer response
If you do not intend to copy the data to a space efficient volume, replace the output volume with
a fully provisioned volume on the COPY command and resubmit the job. If the space efficient volume
is the intended output volume, depending on the detected condition, take the appropriate action
listed as follows:
- Ensure FASTREPLICATION(NONE) is not specified.
- Ensure FCSETGTOK(FAILRELATION) and FCNOCOPY are specified.
- Refer to previously issued message for the reason why the volume is not eligible to participate
in a space efficient FlashCopy relationship.
- Refer to previously issued message for the FlashCopy
failing reason.
