Issue/Introduction

A Database Organizer for IMS for z/OS (DBO) unload job is failing with error DBOJ103E when invoking IIR:
DBOJ103E ERROR OCCURRED IN IIR INTERFACE

Resolution

In the MUF STC job log see that the cause of the IIR failure in the unload job was a space abend.

DB01705I - DYNAMIC EXTEND START IXX615 TRK 4,890 xxxx.DATACOM.xxxx.IXX615
IEC030I B37-04,IFG0554A,xxxxSTRT,xxxxSTRT,IXX615,A02B,xxxxxx,        
xxxx.DATACOM.xxxx.IXX615                                                 
DB01702I - DYNAMIC EXTEND OF AREA IXX615   HAS FAILED

To resolve the space problem run DBUTLTY with SYSIN card REPORT AREA=CXX,DBID=615  

( put the CXX DD with cxx data set name,DISP=SHR in the JCL)

Look at the report for the INDEX data set name and the number of tracks . 

To increase the space ,

1. Stop all IMS activity 

2. Run DBUTLTY  with SYSIN cards 

    COMM OPTION=CLOSE,DBID=615 

    ACCESS STATUS=OFF,DBID=615,USERS=FAIL 

3. Rename the existing IXX615 data set name to dsn.old 

4. Allocate a larger IXX615 data set name ( same name as before) with primary and secondary allocation

4. Run DBUTLTY with SYSIN cards 

    INIT AREA=IXX,DBID=615 
    RETIX DBID=615,OPTIMIZE=YES,SORT=1,SORTDFLT=YES,OPTION1='(I)' 

note that this job requires some SORTWKnn work files for the SORT package that is being used  

5. If all fine , run DBUTLTY ACCESS STATUS=WRITE,DBID=615 

6. Delete dsn.old 

 

Also, as a temporary work around you can run DBUTLTY with SYSIN card DEFRAG DBID=615 

DEFRAG can be run while the base is in use by the IMS tool application.

This should free up some space in the index .
