Hi,
I am new to IMS DC programming, I have cloned a existing working set of MFS source, cobol program, PSB, DBD of HADB database and Transaction. All I did is changed the names of them. As DRD is active, I have used SPOC to create TRAN, PGM and Database with LIKE RSC(resource name), this went well. I did DBDGEN, PSBGEN, ACBGEN and all went well. Compiled the program, went well.

Now when I give /FORMAT TXN12 I am getting the screen, when I enter inputs and press Enter key, I get following error:
Code:
DFS258 17:44:17 UNABLE TO LOCATE MESSAGE DESCRIPTION - INPUT IGNORED


Please help me on this, also educate me if I missed any step tying together above components.

poojithas,

Since you cloned from existing transaction, did you make sure that you changed all instances of "name" to the "new name" ?

Did you query the transaction and see if it is "active"?

Code:

QUERY TRAN NAME(TXN12) SHOW(ALL) /*Show status for tran TXN12*/


What does the DISPLAY of the transaction?

Code:

DISPLAY TRAN TXN12

Hi kolusu,

Transaction is active very much. I figured out that DFS258 is related with MFS blocks not available. Looks like I messed up with MFSUTL procedure. After shutdown of IMS, I did change the MFSUTL to put the blocks in FORMATA, and started the IMS region, this is working now.

Thank you for the reply.
