We just started getting the following messages in three of our Datacom regions: DACA:DB01705I - DYNAMIC EXTEND START A06004 TRK 330 DACA.A06004 IEC030I B37-04,IFG0554A,DACA,DACA,A06004,53B4,DACT01, 676 DACA.A06004 DACA: DB01702I - DYNAMIC EXTEND OF AREA A06004 HAS FAILED DACA:DB01102E - UNEXPECTED 07(036) RETURN CODE ON A06 TABLE FOR ADDIT REQUEST DACA:DB01103I - ACCOUNTING FOR A06 TABLE DISABLED DACA: DB01107W - 00068 ACCOUNTING ENTRIES LOST FOR TABLE A06 DUE TO FAILURE I found the files were at 16 extents and 100% full - can i simply copy the files to larger files and then swap them in when the regions are down? Or do i need to do some kind of a INIT or FORMAT of the files? I don't know Datacom at all.. I found in the error manual what the message means - so i just need help in how i go about fixing the issue. Thanks.
Environment
z/os, CA Datacom/DB 14.0 and higher.
Cause
The fact, that files involved were at 16 extents and 100% full, is preventing any dynamic extend facility to take place.
DBUTLTY using following SYSIN will not work:
//SYSIN DD * COMM OPTION=CONSOLE,OPTION2='DYNAMIC_EXTEND 004,A06,111,TRK'
/*
Resolution
The only possibility here is to:
0- Shut down the Multi-User via EOJ. 1- ALLOCATE a larger AREA using same data set name using ISPF or other meaning. 2- INIT the AREA using DBUTLTY (see below). 3- LOAD FORMAT=NONE the AREA using DBUTLTY (see below). 4- Restart the Multi-User.
