Issue/Introduction

View SARSTC task went down, with the following message:

  SARSTC24  No more space in database xxxxxx.xxxxxx - Reply R (retry), B (backup), N (new), C (clean), OR T (terminate)
  R 9204,T 
  SARSTC09  Archive Task terminated return code 0008

Resolution

The below message as received on  View database DATA space:

SARSTC24 No more space in database xxxxxx.xxxxxx - Reply R (retry), B (backup), N (new), C (clean), OR T (terminate)

The recommendation was to add DATA space extent to the database using the sample JCL below:

//XXXXXXXX JOB ...
//SARDBASE EXEC PGM=SARDBASE,PARM='view_hlq' <=== Modify DB name
//STEPLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=VIEW.CVDELOAD <=== Modify, if used
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
ADDDS DATA CYLINDER=nnnn BLKSIZE=13682 UNIT=uuuu VOLSER=vvvvvv
/*
//

After adding the space, the client was able to start the SARSTC, and processed reports as expected.

The SARSTC task could be started in a couple of ways:

. If the backup cycle is completed, start the task with "/S sarstc".
. If the backup cycle is not completed, start the task with "/S sarstc,OPT=STOPBU".
