EDG3213D
ANOTHER GETVOLUME CURRENTLY IN PROGRESS - ENTER "RETRY", "CANCEL", OR "IGNORE"

Explanation

DFSMSrmm issues this message when a user invokes TSO RMM GETVOLUME subcommand, while another previously invoked GETVOLUME subcommand is being processed for a system managed volume and has not yet completed. Subcommand processing has already waited for the previous request to complete. Either there is a problem or the previous GETVOLUME has been running at a time of system problems.

System action

The command processor prompts the operator to reply RETRY, CANCEL or IGNORE.

When the reply is RETRY, the command processor continues to wait for the other GETVOLUME request to complete. When the reply is CANCEL, DFSMSrmm fails the new request without waiting for the other request to complete. When the reply is IGNORE, the GETVOLUME processing continues regardless that another GETVOLUME request is in progress.

Operator response

Reply as described in the following table:

Operator Reply Result
RETRY The subcommand continues to wait for the other GETVOLUME request to complete.
CANCEL DFSMSrmm fails the new request. The system issues corresponding return and reason codes and message EDG3215I.
IGNORE the GETVOLUME processing continues regardless that the previous GETVOLUME request may not yet have completed.

Decide which is the best reply based on your knowledge of your systems. You can use the IGNORE reply to clean up from possible error situations when a previous GETVOLUME request started and has not completed correctly. For example, the system failed in the middle of the request. Use the F DFRMM,QUERY ACTIVE operator command to see if any other subsystem requests are active on any of the systems sharing the DFSMSrmm CDS.

System programmer response

Advise the operator on the best response for your installation.
