Explanation
The VSAM cluster was not dumped because it had
a multivolume component that was larger than an entire source volume.
To restore the data set, it would be necessary to allocate the component
on multiple volumes, but the system does not support the allocation
of VSAM data sets on multiple volumes.
System action
The data set was not dumped. Processing continues.
The return code is 4.
Operator response
Programmer response
Take one of the following actions:
- Use DFSMSdss DUMP,
specifying the input volumes that contain the VSAM cluster. DFSMSdss RESTORE
can restore the data set from the dump tape in physical dump format.
- Use access method services EXPORT to dump the VSAM cluster. Use
access method services IMPORT to restore from the EXPORT-created dump
tape.
