Issue/Introduction

OPSMVS MISSING STATEMAN TABLE.  BATCH FAILURE - UNABLE TO INITIATE OPS DOWN or UP commands.   We have notice the SYSCHK1 dataset is at over 9 extents. 

Environment

OPS/MVS

Cause

The SYSCHK1 dataset was in multiple extents  

Resolution

The SYSCHK1 dataset should not be defined with a secondary allocation.  

The resolution is to create a new SYSCHK1, and then repro the existing one to the new SYSCHK1.  JCL to create the new SYSCHK1 is in the  **.CCLXCNTL(DEFDIV).

 

Batch jobs were set up to:

1.       Create new SYSCHK1

2.       Repro the old to the new via IDCAMS

3.       Rename the old to a .OLD name

4.       Rename the new to the original SYSCHK1 name
