Resolution

ISPF has various messages that reference I/O errors on 
either GET or PUT (READ and WRITE macros) such as 
message ISPT017. These errors are typically caused 
by concatenation problems on one of the ISPF libraries. 

Allocating data sets that do not have consistent DCB 
parameters in ISPF library concatenations often causes 
these messages. 

For I/O errors during table services, check your 
ISPTLIB concatenation for inconsistent DCBs.
