RECYCLE FAILED - DSN=dsname ON VOLUME=volser - DATA SET DELETED

Explanation

During processing of a RECYCLE command with the FORCE parameter, an error occurred while reading the input data set within the 3480 single-file tape listed as volser. The data set name listed as dsname is the data set name from the TTOC entry being processed.

If the volume being recycled is a backup volume, only the backup version with the error is lost.

If the volume being recycled is a migration volume, all references to the data set are removed, including the system catalog entry pointing to MIGRAT. The data set is deleted.

If MCBR UPDATE FAILED is displayed, a RECYCLE FORCE command was issued and DFSMShsm encountered a volume that might contain one or more retained backup versions for which RETAINDAYS was specified at the time of backup. Retained backup versions can only be processed on a z/OS® V1R11 or later system.

System action

Recycle processing continues with the next data set. DFSMShsm processing continues.

Programmer response

If the data set in error is the latest backup version of a data set, issue a BACKDS command to create a new backup version. If the data set in error is a migration copy, recover the data set from the latest backup version or dump copy.

If MCBR UPDATE FAILED is displayed, reissue the RECYCLE FORCE command on a z/OS V1R11 or later system.
