Environment

Release : 12.5
Component : Disk Backup and Restore

Cause

The problem is caused due to the Endevor Delta files (ELIBs) which remained opened and an IDCAMS VSAM VERIFY should be done as part of the OPEN processing.

Resolution

DISK allows the BACKUP VSAM Endevor Elibs by setting the SYSPARM named VSSYSVER to Y (the default is N).
