PDSMDIRA-1 CONTROL INFORMATION CANNOT BE RECORDED FOR ACB LIBRARY MEMBER

Products

• PDSMAN

Issue/Introduction

I have a TERSEd ACB library that I'm trying to restore.  TERSE fails after message 

PDSMDIRA-1  CONTROL INFORMATION CANNOT BE RECORDED FOR ACB LIBRARY MEMBER      

I tried adding FCOPYOFF, but this had no effect. How do I prevent PDSMAN from interfering?

Got the same issue when shipping the PDS using Connect Direct.

Environment

Release : 7.7

Component : CA-PDSMAN for OS/390

Cause

  ACB libraries have a directory entry format which precludes the recording 
  of PDSMAN member control information. Remove any $UPDATE CONTROL=Y or     
  $ACCESS REF=Y control statements specified for this library. This library 
  cannot be processed by PDSM02 or the PDSMAN backup system. Membername     
  indicates the member for which control information could not be recorded. 

Resolution

Here is what is recommended by the PDSM message in the message guide.
