ARC0513I
FAILED TO UNCATALOG [NON] SMS ENTRY, ENTRY NAME = entname, CATALOG RC = return-code

Explanation

While DFSMShsm has been processing a request to delete a migrated data set, an attempt to delete the entry name entname has failed. If the message indicates NON SMS, then the data set is not SMS managed and the CAMLST UNCAT macro has been used to uncatalog the entry. In this case, the return code is from the CAMLST macro. See z/OS DFSMS Using Data Sets. for a description of the return codes from the CAMLST macro.

If the message indicates SMS, then the data set is SMS managed and SVC 26 has been used to uncatalog the entry. In this case, the return-code is the return code from the module ARCZSDEL, with the values and meanings as follows:
Retcode
Meaning
8

For each of the error conditions listed above, there is a corresponding message that contains more information about the failure. These corresponding messages are written to the command activity log.
