In the CA 7 started task, the following error occurs:
CAL2SM01W Area: HIS DBID: 0770 Full: 95.00% DSN: xxx....
Component : Datacom
This message is produced when a CA 7 data or index area reaches the threshold of percent full.
CA 7 database area becoming full is most times not critical, and can usually be addressed without having outage in the application.
For general information and background, please refer to Datacom database space management
This article will explain the processes for managing Datacom database files.
Because of Datacom processing, a problem with area described in the CAL2SM01W message may occur. If the file for this area is not yet at 16 extents, then as the area reaches 100% full, it will dynamically add another extent, based on the Datadictionary-defined dynamic extend amount, or the z/OS file secondary allocation amount (the space that is provided is available on the volume). Nothing special needs to be done, as this all happens automatically. Optionally, there is a command to allocate and configure a new extent of any size, regardless of the dynamic extend setting, that would be used. For more information about this process, please review How to extend a Datacom area while the database is open
To determine if any special processing is needed, review the CXX report for the database or area, and the z/OS catalog listing of extents for the file (generally seen in ISPF 3.2). Run the DBUTLTY program to produce the CXX report using this input:
//SYSIN DD *
SET OPTION1=ON-ERROR-CONTINUE
COMM DBID=770,OPTION=STATS
REPORT DBID=770,AREA=CXX,TYPE=A
REPORT DBID=770,AREA=CXX
REPORT DBID=770,TYPE=H
/*
Then review the Space Utilization Report (from the TYPE=A report), and if any area is above 90%, for example, review the ISPF 3.2 allocation display.
As always, please contact Broadcom support for Datacom if you have further questions.
