ERROR READING THE CONTROL DATA SET. RC = return_code, REAS = reason_code, KEY = vsam_key

Explanation

Either the DFSMSrmm backup and recovery utility, or the control data set utility, has encountered an error performing I/O to the DFSMSrmm control data set. The message text provides information about the attempted I/O.

In the message text:
return_code
The return code that is returned by VSAM in register 15, or it is a DFSMSrmm internal return code. Possible values for the DFSMSrmm internal return code are:
  • 252 - The record read from the control data set is not a DFSMSrmm supported record.
  • 255 - The I/O request made is not supported by DFSMSrmm.
reason_code
The RPL reason code returned by VSAM or zero for DFSMSrmm internal return codes
vsam_key
The key of the VSAM record that was the subject of the request

System action

The program fails.

Operator response

None.

Programmer response

Review the message text and refer to z/OS DFSMS Macro Instructions for Data Sets.

This error is the result of a VSAM processing error. The DFSMSrmm control data set might be damaged. For DFSMSrmm internal return codes, the action depends on the return code.

For return code 252, your control data set contains records that are not supported by DFSMSrmm. You should ensure that the VSAM data set being used contains only valid records. You should only use the DFSMSrmm supplied and supported utilities against the DFSMSrmm control data set.

For return code 255, report the error to the IBM® Support Center. If other VSAM messages have been issued, refer to these messages for action to be taken.
