 Posted: Thu Sep 23, 2004 10:11 am Post subject: JCL Error, DATA SET NOT FOUND, don't know why |
 |
|
Here is the JCL:
| Code: |
//*-------------------------------------------------------------------*
//STEP01 EXEC PGM=FORMAT,COND=(0,NE)
//SYSABOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSDBOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//INFILE DD DSN=TEST.FILE,DISP=SHR
//DAFILE DD DSN=TEST.FILE.DAFILE(+1),
// DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),
// SPACE=(TRK,(13,3),RLSE),
// DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=1000)
|
And the error:
IEF212I XXXX115J STEP01 DAFILE - DATA SET NOT FOUND
IEF272I XXXX115J STEP01 - STEP WAS NOT EXECUTED.
I do not understand. This is the firs time this is running, is the (+1) not found because it is the first time running? |

| I got the same error until I defined the GDG base for 'TEST.FILE.DAFILE', after which the job ran fine. |

When createing a (+1) you need to add the the DCB MODEL keyword.
DCB=(MODEL,RECFM=FB,LRECL=1000). Ensure the MODEL has been created.

Larry, isn't the use of the MODEL DCB statement optional based on site-specific standards (I can't even find this option mentioned in either the JCL Reference Manuals and MVS/Quickref)?
I never have needed to use it. |

We recently converted to z/OS and the person installing it forgot to catalog the MODEL dataset and we got JCL Errors on all our GDG datasets regardless of generation number, as long as it was (+n). Here is the information from the JCL manual.
"DCB attributes can be supplied either: (1) by creating a model data set label on the volume on which the index resides (the volume containing the GDG base) or (2) by referring to a cataloged data set for the use of its attributes." It can be found in teh 'OS/390 V1R1.0 MVS JCL User's Guide'

Fyi....
For SMS managed shops you do NOT need the MODEL parm if the BASE exists.

I just tried it again. Without the MODEL Dataset and Non-SMS, I still received the JCL error sith the following message. PATTERN DSCB RECORD NOT FOUND IN VTOC'
For SMS managed DSN's, all we get are JCL errors without the MSG mentioned above.
