Issue/Introduction

We are starting a Package file clean up project and are Archiving the Committed packages from the Packages file before deleting the packages.

We ran the ARCHIVE PACKAGE job and it completed with a RC=0.
When we attempt to run the Archive Package reports CONRPT 56 , 57 , 58 , the job abends with S002-A0 error:

What is wrong and how do we resolve this?

Environment

z/OS 
All supported versions of CA Endevor

Cause

 The Archive Package job was writing to a PDSE library and did not specify a member name:

//ARCHPKG  DD DSN=iprfx.ARCHIVED.PACKAGES,DISP=SHR

The ARCINPT DD statement in the CONRPT job also did not specify a member name:

//ARCINPT DD DSN=iprfx.ARCHIVED.PACKAGES,DISP=SHR 

As noted in the Generate Archived Package Reports  on the Endevor DocOps site when using a PDS or PDSE type library, only individual members can be used and not the entire data set:
 

Note: If a package is archived to a Partitioned Data Set (PDS), you can generate reports only from individual members of a data set and not the complete data set.

Resolution

In the Archive Package job specify a member name like this:

//ARCHPKG  DD DISP=SHR,DSN=iprfx.ARCHIVED.PACKAGES(packagename)
 

In the CONRPT job specify a member name on the ARCINPT DD statement like this:

//ARCINPT DD DISP=SHR,DSN=iprfx.ARCHIVED.PACKAGES(packagename)
