EDG8194I
function OF VOLUME volser REFUSED - VOLUME STATUS MAY ONLY BE CHANGED FROM PRIVATE TO SCRATCH BY DFSMSrmm

Explanation

DFSMSrmm was unable to process an OAM request for the volume because the OAM status for the volume is being changed to SCRATCH and the DFSMSrmm status for the volume is MASTER or USER. DFSMSrmm does not allow a volume's status to change from MASTER or USER to SCRATCH by OAM, unless the volume is already a scratch candidate volume. A scratch candidate is pending release and the only pending action is "return to scratch".

In the message text:
function
Describes the function being requested of OAM.
CHANGE USE
Volume change use processing
volser
This is the volume serial number being processing.

System action

EDGLCSUX performs no function.

System programmer response

If you want the volume to become a SCRATCH volume, use the volume application of the DFSMSrmm ISPF dialog to release the volume. Depending on the release actions for the volume, the volume will return to be a scratch volume when the DFSMSrmm inventory management next runs. If the volume is manually released, it is a scratch candidate, and you can try the failed request again.
