Lots of SARSTC07 messages being generated from the View STC

Issue/Introduction

We IPL'd our systems and since then been getting the message SARSTC07 from four of our five View STC's. According to the manual, SARSTC07 means:

Attempt to archive sysout from archival task - Sysout deleted

Reason: The job name of the SYSOUT passed to CA View for archival is the same as the archival started task, and the producing ddname is SYSnnn. To prevent a potential archival-print loop, CA View deletes the SYSOUT without ever archiving it.

But we seem to be getting it for lots of different sysouts. View appears to be correctly archiving sysout.

SARBKLST is set to SYSOUT=X

Cause

The message is being generated because the Sarinit parameter XPRINT=YES is set , so View is automatically going to print any SYSOUT in which an exceptional condition occurs  which is the case here.

There is no value specified for the NEWCLSL Sarinit parameter so the output will be printed in the original output class which View is collecting.

Resolution

In this case need to specify a NEWCLSL parameter in Sarinit to prevent the archival of SYSOUT automatically printing because of an exceptional condition ,this will prevent the SARSTC07 message from being generated. .
