ARC1287I
A DISCREPANCY WAS FOUND IN THE DATA SET VTOC ENTRY

Explanation

DFSMShsm was attempting to perform space management on a data set and encountered a data set VTOC entry that is inconsistent with IBM® standards. The data set name is given in the preceding ARC1001I message or in the associated ARC0734I message along with the reascode for the type of discrepancy found. The reascode has the following meaning:
Reascode
Meaning
2
The data set has a discrepancy in the data set VTOC entry and is indicated to be a PDSE data set. The data set VTOC entry indicates the data set to be a non-SMS-managed data set. PDSE data sets must be SMS-managed.
4
A data set has a discrepancy between its catalog entry and its data set VTOC entry indicating this is not a PDSE data set. The catalog entry indicates this data set is a PDSE and the data set VTOC entry indicates it is not a PDSE.
6
The data set has a discrepancy between its data set VTOC entry and its catalog entry indicating this is not a PDSE data set. The data set VTOC entry indicates this data set is a PDSE and its catalog entry indicates it is not a PDSE.
8
The data set has a discrepancy between its data set VTOC entry and its VSAM volume data set (VVDS) entry indicating this is not a PDSE data set. The data set VTOC entry indicates this data set is PDSE and the VVDS indicates this data set is not PDSE.
10
The data set has a discrepancy between its VSAM volume data set (VVDS) entry and its data set VTOC entry indicating this is not a PDSE data set. The VVDS indicates this data set is PDSE and the data set VTOC entry indicates this data set is not PDSE.

System action

The space management of the data set ends. DFSMShsm processing continues.

Programmer response

Correct the discrepancy. In most cases the data set VTOC entry needs to be corrected based on the true attributes of the data set.
